Tables

We have sat at the same tables a lifetime now In many different countries and places Countless years and countless people Family, friends and strangers faces I want to sit at tables with you forever Your face to me is home Never to view an empty chair Without you at my table ….alone!

Table talk is beautifully expressed. Original and sincere. Loved it, Deb XX

How well you have made something beautifully human orbit around something as simple as a table...poetry has a way of focussing feeling as this poem capably demonstrates.
