Waiting

It’s nearly ten months

I compile the photos in my mind
and wonder how we’ll be

I’ve never seen you so happy

You and the horse swimming the lake
I know what that means to you

And the weeks are rushing by

When I look at those pictures
I feel that you’ve found your place

I seem to be marking time

Looking for mine

Waiting

It feels like the night before Waterloo
Gettysburg or Normandy

Whatever the dawn brings
nothing can ever be the same

And all I can do is wait

Such a poignant poem, PT...and again you create that emotive  picture in the reader's mind, of the girl and her horse.

Hi Tina.  Thought I'd attack the same subject from a different direction.  Thanks for reading and glad you thought so.

Thank you, too, Bee.  Keeping me tapping the keys.  Love the fact that you loved it.  One day, when I'm deed and gone, it will be nice if someone remembers reading it.
