Carole - Enjoyed "Wandering Thoughts" and your use of imagery to make thoughts and feelings physical. The last stanza is especially effective:
the way that sadness
got stuck
in the corners of her eyes
I'll be back to read more.

I miss so many lovely persons that I once knew but who are no longer with me. My memory of them burns brightly and will never fade even while my sadness at their absence aches in my heart.
I'm saved only by my belief that we will once again share ourselves in the House of God.
A soulful, insightful offering.
With thanks and respect,
Richard |

Carole,
I admire everything about this poem, its thought, feeling and language, and in particular how the tone softens progressively from start to finish and ends with "the corners of her eyes"...

Csrole this one was so intrinsically done that it let my mind also reflect on the things in life and people who have seemingly slipped away in the past somewhere never to be seen again except in idle thoughts now and then. wonderful work.

Carole, I think only people your age and my age can really sense the thoughts that occupy our minds when at night sleep comes very slowly.
I've felt your thoughts. I feel your thoughts. Very well written.
