Passages ---- and -- Pauses

there are passages in life
  gaps between jobs
  between marriages
  even between... deaths
    hear the stillness

there are pauses in life
  spaces between words
  some spoken
  others mute
  a few...written...
    feel the emotions

So true, my dear friend. Your golden pen spills with profound expression. Splendid in it’s intriguing and inspiring quality, Gershon. A gem to linger over. Warmest wishes to you.. ~Susan

Susan, I'm going to try to let you down very easily -- no sudden jolts or surreal shocks: My pen is not gold... It is cubic-zirconium plated plastic. And all of my 'gems' go for $4.95 each; 2 @ 8.95. Operators are standing by now to take your call

Thanks, Milt. One of the few lately I've written lately that I myself was happy with. Appreciated greatly. Listening and Learning, Gershon
