Who says
That it’s by my desire,
This separation, this living so far from you?
My dress still smells of the lavender you gave:
My hand still holds the letter that you sent.
Round my waist I wear a double sash:
I dream that it binds us both with a same-heart knot.
Did not you know that people hide their love,
Like the flower that seems too precious to be picked?

Off the wall, under the freeway, over the rainbow, nothin' but net.
Erm, what am I doing with my life?
Artist by choice, photographer by default, poet by accident.

Beautiful poem!!
Thank you for saying that.
You’re welcome! 🙂
Oh that was exceptionally beautiful!!!
I’m glad you think so.
This is beautiful.
I’m glad you think so.
It’s a very lovely poem. John Lennon would agree, I think. “You’ve got to Hide Your Love Away”
Anyway, I love your poetry, so won’t hide that!
I’m happy that you love the poem. And thanks for the lovely comment about mine.
