Your hand in the night
before sleep,
before waking,
patting my hair
so lightly,
your fingers
telling the story
of how we love,
the song we sing
secure in silence.

Very lovely, thanks.
So elegant and gentle. So real. Thanks!
Ah, if only everyone could find such a love…
Smiles over the miles..
… how I honor the Spirit you are in my life… Your Love, our FUN together or apart. Thanks for your gentle reminder Don.
Deep thankfulness for this gentle space you know, and share with us now. This place has no borders, no conditions, no requirements. It just Is.
Yummy……..Don, you, along with Mary Oliver, are one of my favorite poets….I mean it.
Love the concluding line — “the song we sing
secure in silence” — which takes this to a whole other level, IMJ.
You point to the gentle moments of love that we cherish. You always touch my heart, Don!
I think you wrote this for Tom and me.
Thank you.
Sweet. I sent it to my love.
Exquisite. And the new format, worthy of your art. Thank you for engaging the visual in a poetic way.
Don, This brings back treasured memories of 44 years marriage to an Angel. In gratitude.
