Woven Words

I hug secrets
  and dusty thoughts
          fading
falling into silence
   becoming invisible

My mind is a mirage of drifting images. Faces that I love but have forgotten.
A pretty cottage by a flowing river when I was a child. A woman is planting flowers in a huge flower garden.  Mother is that you? I look at my withered
hands whispering, I am ready God. There is a peaceful silence in invisible.
