'kindred Flights'

tear stains like tire marks, or finger prints can leave their mark buckle up or buckled under you still have a choice in life fleeting moments distant smiles can warm a heart can start a halted love the moments in between can take us to the depths of love unseen kindred flights on baseless journeys never gave you an end point it only helped with the in between before you reached your destiny ©240120121350

It's the "in between" that makes me hold my breath. Nice verse you have penned Wilma; destiny sometimes has surprises for us don't you think?

Welcome back, Wilma. I love the line about "buckle up or buckle under." We carry our tear stains along life's journey. They are reminders of what has happened in the past, but they can't predict the future. There is always hope for better days. Beautiful poem, my friend. Love, Carolyn
