When I'M Gone

Skies open, broken amongst the mist blues knelt down, praying wonders kept, drifting blown far and fast away vast, the ocean builds tears as far as an eye can see ripples wronged right, as little reminders pushing out in many different ways the air shifts quietly surrounung all this beauty as the rest of world continues to breathe the sun isn't succumbing to sacrosanct smiling on such an auspicious day winking in the wonderment and watching what's here left to stay the sense, the sensibility compassion caressing candor crossing bridges as life pushes us towards the edge begging for forgiveness in eyes brightened by words whispered in the dark and dark times they have been so much so one doesn't care to begin world cries out to empty skies hoping, for once, there'll be a reply

I am no saint, that's for sure. Heart's in the right place, last time I felt it, still beats. I do worry about the elderly, the less able and those doing it rough without a home, or family/support network, throughout all this. Reports from Italy about the elderly and age limits of concern. Love, kindness, compassion.

The skies are not empty...the reply, the answer exists in all of us, some need to dig a little deeper. Some need to BELIEVE, the response exists. Love, compassion and kindness.
