Learning from Loving

Gifts from our loving

Learnings so unexpected

Sunlight dancing down

Focus On Gratitude

I’m grateful for these:

Joyous children around me

Love’s capacity

Off to the side

​He sat watching her 

Dancing with another man 

Stunned by the anguish 

Today

We walked into the cafe

An older couple entered

Through my held door 
Hand in hand

Talking to friends

Amidst the youth

And their frantic keystrokes 

Lost to the now
Rain’s changing 

Drippy drizzle

To wind blown torrent

And the light moving

Across the sky
Puddles forming upon

Untended tables

Love’s Legacy

Can’t forget
What has passed
Some may wish these
Memories to vanish
For me? No…
I hold them dear
Pain and joy
For that’s
Love’s legacy
