Love Without Hope

Above, the blushing blood moon vexes silken ebon space
with shadows in the mournful mist recalling, pale, a wistful trace -
her farewell smile I viewed through tears that almost veiled her face -
she turned her head and whispered low 'another time, another place...'

How romantic, Terry, along with the sadness I love. I've missed our back and forth and the experience I've missed of reading your oh so beautiful writing. I just can't get back into the groove. Xxxooo Kathy
