Legend has it, he’s watching you
Hiding in the verdant hue
Of leaves and flora, a hanging limb
That gather round, disguising him
At first you think, it’s just a stone
That lines the path, up to your home
Until you take a closer view
There’s someone looking back at you
Stumbling backward, up the hill
You notice that he’s staring, still
You shake your head and blink your eyes
But this really comes as no surprise
To see a soul, though inanimate, it’s true
Rocks have feelings, they most certainly do
Author’s Note: Hubby spotted this rock looking back at us the other night. It has been there for years, 26 to be exact, and we never noticed the face. I wonder who it could be watching over us ❤

It’s funny how things happen, how oblivious I am to my surroundings, and who I am, until I hit that proverbial brick wall and wonder why all I had done just faded away. She reminded me often of that. I don’t think I ever forgave her. After all, wasn’t it she who taught me how to hide my feelings, how to disappear into oblivion.

Crippled and bent, these fingers well spent
Mind always racing, my midnight lament
Words fly like meteors, such a delight
Keyboard click clacks, at the speed of light
Jumbled up sentences, misunderstood
Unraveled meaning, this, my livelihood
Letters, together, form feelings, my soul
Crumpled together, the need to console
My heart, when my hands can no longer feel
One day at a time, I live my life, piecemeal

Together, we’re one, the ebb and flow
In candlelight, two bodies glow
With staggered breaths, your every whim
Reaches, to my core, within
The cravings, of the heart and soul
Feelings, now beyond control
Ride the waves, of passion’s fire
Let this be our one desire
In each other’s arms, content and sated
Our love will never be abated
