"How Are Things With Me..."

"How Are Things With Me..."

A Poem by Chris
"

I was asked...

"

I was asked today...

"How Are Things With Me... "

 

Less than they were,

less than I wished,

too quiet -

not desperate,

not right but not wrong,

a touch lonely -

a touch crowded.

I wondered...

and listened -

but neither

about nor to ...me.

 

...not very numb at all.

When they ask they really don't want an answer. When you ask yourself, you do. And here you have yourself answered admirably. In fact more than admirably. So you are ok are you?

All of the above - of course.
And when the question was asked, they opened a huge door wide, and Chris stepped through to explore and answer.
Well answered my friend.
