Sprinkled by moon dust / Blessed excited inclusion / A long to belong @josepf

Dont know what to say (poem)

You answered

but

there was something there

or was there something

missing?

***

It had been joyous

every moment

of every

day

chiding, teasing,

laughing

loving

***

Each moment of each day

beautiful

like a rose blooming

each stage

a new

fragrant

beauty

***

Is this

the brown

dry

about to be

blown away

dead

end

Thanks to : CTwirler12 for the dead rose

  1. “there was something there
    or was there something
    missing?”

    isn’t it sad when we can no longer see love in its entirety, when the love is wilting, dying?

    beautiful way of putting it, moon ;)

    love ya,
    glittering

    Well written , Moon… you have so beautifully captured the cyclical nature of life and it’s abstractions…

    Lovely!
