Missing the Den ~~~~~~ My thoughts are always with you all Even As I am absent from you Walking down the hall I crave to be there with you Read you guys day and night But the reality Of my present surroundings Keep me away. ~~~~ I feel like an addict A junkie being drawn Towards your direction Every time I pass a computer Because I know that’s where My heart resides Incarcerated in cyber space. ~~~~ I do sneak in Once in a while Or as the old clehe goes Once in a Blue moon. Sneak in, So I am not talked about Like “He should be taking care of her” Instead of farting around with the computer ~~~~ My mind has not relaxed My quill I must say is still within my grasp My ink well is filled My poetic values I still possess I still brand the blank parchments Present before me With the Gift the Lord has given me. ~~~~ Yet I can’t be there with you My friends, my favorite writers My readers and great reviewers And like my grandson say “My Homies” That one was for him Because he truly inspires me. ~~~~ Yes you do Lil Curt “I call him the Pimp” Because he’s kind of kool Smooth as silk Handsome like Grandpa used to be At least that’s what they say Who am I to argue Has a good head on his shoulders For a young man maturing Being weighted down with wisdom At his early age. ~~~~ I have to take care of “The One” Most important in my live She who has grown and aged Gracefully and ever so beautifully While by my side In all our years she was The one that was always there for me When I opened my eyes Not knowing where I was My lovely Graying Raven If only you could have seen her In her Yesteryears As beautiful as a Cover Girl. ~~~~ She needs me now Those vows I Took Almost half century ago I am abiding by now For ever and ever Till death do us part No she’s not dying Just recovering from major surgery A slow process I can hear her lively laughter as I am writing……. She’s on the phone What else is new???? ~~*~~ By: William Bonilla “D’Artagnan” 08/12/09

Your absence is well stated in this beautiful poem. Of course we miss you William, but time given to the caring of another, or to ourselves, is far more important. Know that your AD "chair" awaits your return, friend.
Blessings and Love - Micke

William, I know you are with us in spirit, and for me, I know your inner feelings are real, and you always speak from the heart. I will be in touch, perhaps D'Artagnan needs another dose of Amber collaboration! I will keep sending healing energy out to your wife for a more speedy recovery. Just remember that you are always in my thoughts.
Peace, love, and light,
Amber "V"

Lots of bottled up thoughts and feelings escaping in this one William and that is sometimes the best way to release emotional stress that we often carry packed away like last winter's clothes. Hope all goes well and you are back writing with us soon.

I hear you loud and clear, William.
Another satisfying write all 'round!
You've got your priorities straight;
and your flexibility in place...
All will be well soon enough.

Sorry to hear your beloved wife is recovering from major surgery, but glad she is on the mend; please take care of her (and yourself), and take all the time you need. We'll still be here, waiting. Know you are loved and are in our prayers/thoughts!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :(

My twin sister knows this all too well; she was in your shoes nearly three years ago when I was so sick and had major surgery myself. It was not easy for either one of us, but I think it was hardest on her.
