Lonesome

Lonesome

now day is ended
fast falls eventide
dark shadows merge   
and wraith-like wrap 
the world in black
ending a lonely day
now comes a 
lonely night
where oh 
where is
that friendly ear 
the gurgling 
chuckle 
the reassuring
mental presence 
albeit some
800- Ks away
unaware perhaps
of the power
she alone
exudes that 
lifts the
spirits and
heals the
lonely void
she flits in
flits by
flits out
does not see
nor feel the
outstretched 
hand
that seeks
the magic
of her
company
to laugh
to tease
to scold
to chide
i have
missed
you so
much and
still do

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Have a blessed New Year.
