The cobblestone road
Sauntering along the old cobblestone road
Grass flourishes amid the stones
Ghostly memories of what once was
Where once stood two contentedly
Sad shoulders now slumping slight
Which once before were strong
Long dress brushing the stones as she walks
Where occasional butterfly tethers a ride
Removing her bonnet
She allows auburn hair to cascade down
Over sad shoulders whilst wind tousles her tresses
Downcast green eyes fraught with sorrow
Time unearthing veiled matters
Tears descending lingering down soft cheeks
Droplets falling in slow motion
Pooling onto the stones of what once were

"Droplets falling in slow motion
Pooling onto the stones of what once were"
When you write about love, you ARE love at that moment
When you write about sickness, you ARE sickness at that moment
When you write about sadness, you ARE sadness at that moment
This is what makes your poems so extraordinary.
Although this is a very sad poem, it’s beautiful in all its sadness.
Every word is felt, all the deep and touching emotions. Every movement can be seen as if it happens before my eyes.
Wonderful Carolee
Stay well and keep writing
