When a loved one walks out the door, we never know if we will see them alive again.

An Autumn Departure

You walked out,
Without kissing me good-bye.
I’m confident you weren’t angry.
It was merely an absent-minded act,
But one that troubled me even so.
To compound my concern,
There was a torrential rain,
With autumn leaves
Covering the roadway,
Making driving all the more hazardous.
Will our lips ever touch yet again?
Was the thought that plagued me
As seconds turned to hours.
My zealous plea
Was for God to shield you
And deliver you securely home
To the one who adores you
Beyond words’ expression.

What a beautiful heart touching poem...and I think we've all been there. True love is evident in the asking of God to shield and protect. For me, one of your best David...
Best wishes, Diana...

WHAT YOU STATED IS SO TRUE...ONE NEVER KNOWS WHETHER THE ONE THEY SAW WHEN THE SUN ROSE, WILL STILL BE IN THE LAND OF THE LIVING, WHEN THE SUN SETS. BUT I LOVE YOUR CONCLUSION; 'MY ZEALOUS PLEA WAS FOR GOD TO SHIELD YOU AND DELIVERY YOU SECURELY HOME'. AND THAT IS ALL ONE CAN DO, DAVID...PRAY FOR THEM. WELL DONE AND ENJOYED. THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

for one who ends with the hands in the air diplomacy of "beyond words" you sure picked the right ones to communicate this malaise... Nicely done!
