Goodnight

 

This old soul of mine

Needs a gardener right now

To keep it from drying out…completely

Lost too much water already

Through these eyes that see

Images of nature and water

Ripples of life’s display

Tells a different story each day!!

Love send from a distance

As I wave you goodbye

Shared by verbal kisses

Saying goodnight…adios, goodbye

This really can describe the end of time, of life, or just of the day to slumber. Takes you to the sentiment, which is nice.

Thanks,

A gardener named desire has the balm to fertilise and enrich the parched soul starved of love. Then, in its satisfied state, the replenished soul can whisper goodnight - sleep tight.

Lovely sentiment.

Tinka,

I hope this means you're not leaving permanently...a poignant 'Goodbye' in emotional verse.

There is a texture in your writing, it reaches out and touches the mind while holding the soul at arms length, a sadness but beauty in presentation. Music brings a smile this night, for me summer is yet to come and spring is on the horizon, best day you can find.. Walt

Ah long distance love though strong can also be fragile on the heart and stretches the limits of perserverence to the breakin point at times. But if love is meant to be it will find the sun and moisture needed for it to flourish.
