Sometimes

I wander.. down memory's lane.. I stop, from time to time.. I see, as a stranger sees.. light,dark sunlit scenes; voices,faces places I've been.. They talk..I listen.. they seem not to notice me.. I am there.. yet ..am not

Hi Brian, It has been a while since I have been to the soup. I have been wandering down this same lane - soul searching. This piece touched me deeply. I hope to be back here writing soon. I have missed all of you. Elaine

This is the walk we all take through life. We look and listen and feel like we go unnoticed, but we learn something from each encounter. Beautiful write, Brian. Love, Carolyn

We tend to do that....(at least I do)...I can be there...and yet, not be there. Wandering minds can take us to other places! I do very much like this poem!
