No More

I promised I wouldn't write any more sad poems this week I promised myself I'd enjoy the warm weather with every beat I promised I'd dwell on the light no matter how flickering it lit Sad news keep pouring, I never promised me of none of it Am afraid to move, afraid to hear, afraid to know, if only the world would stand still

Is Armand one of the poets in soup? I'll have to check him up

No worries Njeri - sometimes I find just reading helps take my mind off my own worries - when i see the issues Armand has in his life I know my issues are small in comparison - i read far more widely than I comment - simply not enough time to comment on every poem I read:-) x2 Hugs Jan xx

I hope so too. This is the first comment I've replied too for several hours. Its been hard for me to reply to people's comments. Am sorry you seem to be going through a difficult time too. I also hope for better news for both of us. Thank you Jan
