There is an unclimbable barrier between age and missed opportunities.
Spring will soon be in our midst. But I… forever shall I be trapped in winter— contemplative of what would have been, could have been, or even should have been. All Rights Reserved © 2008 by David Lee Thompson

such a resonant haunted piece. .. .
seasons change as will [hopefully] peaces of minds. .. .
adore the swift pointed succinctness of this....
and teh contrast of hope vs despair in the green or grey of seasonry.. .

...your words will always resound...and though the snare of winter's percussion...may find a different drum for some...the beat of the heart will...with time...accept the seasons...because it knows no others.

very well penned thoughts David...
