You

"Be There"

 

Frogs croaking very loud

as the winter’s warm breeze

tenderly kisses my face

 

A wind chime reminds

 me your no longer next

 door to be my friend

 

Oddly, I walk in the yard

 finding myself squatting

down by the dead weeds

 

Holding my breathe to weep

 tears dance down my face

 and splatter the ground

 

Opening my eyes I see

 beautiful pansies and

you are there after all.

 

-You -

There is a warmth to this that matches its setting....perhaps I just have a soft spot for pansies but this poem speaks of those things that remind us of people we love...

[Samuel Dickens]

Tender and heart-felt. You're in tune with your surroundings like all creative people are. Well done! Sam

[Enigma]

It's always painful to love a friend. But you've presented it here in a very casual manner. Though you're feeling low, but you realize that life is still going on around yo. It hasn't stopped. The imagery used is beautiful...
Well Done!!!
