True independence my Sister. Love the way this poem winds down with:
"I think of blue summer skies,
And wild mustard,
Not of you,
Not of you,
Not anymore."
Strong, free, all of this is as Jim and Pea' say previously.
Get that anthology done soon!
blessin's and season's best to you,

And the wild mustard swaying in the meadow,
The doe sipping from the sweet spring waters,
The jay calling her young babes to fly,

I think that is the time that you are truely free of the heartache,
when without exageration you can honestly say of the one you once gave your all to, "I don't think about you anymore",
at the beginning ofcourse it feels that time will never come, but somehow quite unexpectedly it does, and when it does, it is the most wonderful feeling of relief to know that you can actualy make it through life without them,
This is a truely inspiring work of poetry,
thank you so much for sharing it.
