The Empty Swing

the empty swing
still moving to and fro...
cry of a child

Like this! We tumble, react and the world continues on, doesn't it? ;-) Sad, strong image. Cheers, Cyndi

oh, about the poems I wrote on that December day when the poetry was flowing. . . . I found some of them in my files today. I don't think they were ones that ever got posted at soup. I have over a thousand that never have been posted here. (meaning not among my very best!) I actually have some I consider some of my best also that i've never posted here. Maybe one day!
