Just D

Just call me D
 biding time, observing earth, sky, and sea
 sister, daughter, contemplative meanderer,
 caretaker, pet lover and the great procrastinator of time,
Lover of the Word, of everyone and almost everything;
 I live, I love, I hope, I dream, I believe in what can be,
 I accept who you are and all that you may need,
 You have your way, 
I have mine, stepping cautiously
 within the lines and life paths, there is for me, 
 a place and purpose here, 
 as I still have some promises to keep
where everyone concedes
 walking the fine lines 
 within delusions and  wide-eyed fantasies
 here it is -
this is the dream,
Babbit's.

DM, 'Just D' is good enough for me. All best wished in Babbit's dream. -Richard
