Unforsaken

Again I see you, again you return to me again you remain, I am unable to move
Without reiteration of your presence; you make me aware always, and again
Never is never to be.' as all is possible still more than imagination is.' 
That is reality in its ever change, of opportunity there will be no end.
You begin again in renewal, as snowdrops bloom in biting wind cold
Old ever the opposite to youth, & that is part of forever without finish
Outside is waiting unbelief. & echoing throughout existence willingness
New day is sprung of itself, indifferent to broken dreams or the longest nights
Lessons are given; forgotten.' again & again; life's spirals weave dream & destiny's

Joe, your writing is a blessing for me. It gives me a chance to read one of the best. For me it has a teaching element. It is what great modern poetry should be. Of course I will add it to my fav list. The only thing that saddens me is the lack of ability for a bunch of us to get together for a coffee or whatever just to talk. Love, love, love this. Thank you!

I read just now what you replied to me a while back. Sorry to hear that you were (are?) depressed. I wish you a happy new year that will make you feel uplifted.

Flackmoth has considered running for president but convinced himself he was not corrupt enough to do the job. As for Mr. Trump, if he gets elected, it will only prove how little insight Americans have in judging character. Merci for the stop. Best to you. / M

If I read you correctly, old Joe, yearning never stops, even in old age. It keeps on renewing. This is a jewel. Love, daver
