Notes About The Poem

Knots

like handworking lace
commentary intricate
i mourn at its loss
i cannot recover knots
the antique roses undone

Yes, we have lost the grip on conversation. Text, email, and short notes have replaced the sharing of ourselves with another. Thanks for sharing this one with us. I hope that is what this one is about. Your visit to my page was uplifting. Sara

I’d say that you came the closest, Sara. I love everyone’s take on it though.

Hello Kim, all roses must bud bloom and die.' Its just the way life jouney lies.. Like the knots we untangle On a yacht, or pot-holing rope dangles.' Such reality's are ours to come by.' Enjoyed this write..'
