around the mail box holding
my divorce decree.

dancing butterflies--
my journey forgotten

  1. Diridoni's poem, such tendernesses in those silent pauses called white space on the page, in the shared journey after journey. Then come those stinky roses, decay. Fine editing, a pearl of great worth. Thank you, Don. ~ Donna

  2. H. Edgar has a terrific attitude ...
    a sense of humour

    we've been happily divorced now
    for 27 years

    I predict another happily divorced couple

    my x and I now best friends

    nice set of pieces today

    a smile AND a tear combined
    .... the "stuff" of poetry/art !

    & the plots here going forward
    along several different paths...
    simultaneously

    and w/out judgement, anger or desire.... neat. Thanks
