I’ve conceded
to how easily
I’d have fallen
for you,
had I been
given the chance.
Foolish me, and
damn the truth.

I have known that exact moment… and damn the truth. Reality is not where I wish to dwell. So I shall forever imagine………..

Love is foolish, isn’t it? What would it be but cold and empty if every aspect were measured and considered rather than that we plunge whole-heartedly into love? As the best of us do. You’re hurting, Audrey, and I hurt for you.

What I’ve seen of real love is exciting, fun, warm, strong, forgiving, trusting and true. What an amazing gift for so many.

I need some flowers. But they don’t be surprised that they are difficult to get them to bloom.

The poor things. They had blooms more and then outrageous winds and they cut them short. There are some bravely waiting and hopefully’.

Our flowers last such short precious moments. Hate to hear this…may your spring bring beautiful blossoms to enjoy.

Don’t tell me your daffodils are already blooming!!! I’m sooo ready for spring! This is quite lovely … and sums up some people I’ve known. Odd how things work out — or not — in their own time.

Oh no, but I bet a few more days of warmish weather could cause them to consider it. I think the message in this poem does ruffle some feathers, but I wanted to share something a bit more shocking and real. Every path is different. I’ve been known not to be happy with a few I’ve wanted to be on. Have a great evening. xo
