A Tiny Life

Each tiny life 

Clings

Grows

Unfurls

Becomes one

Of the many 

In the beginning 

Delicate and precious

“Life is a series of tiny miracles.”

~ Mike Greenberg, radio host

(From A-Z Quotes)

Faded Blossoms

Petals strewn upon the wind

Too frail to stay upon the tree

Winds wild, hot and dry

Fade colour from bright to pale

Pink drifts on the world below

Gather softly in curbs and corners

While the tree flowers still  

Thro’ morning, noon and night.

“Flowers whisper ‘beauty’ to the world, even as they fade, wilt, fall.”  

~ Dr. Sunwolf

Then We Knew

 

“When life begins

   feeling too distant, 

When, unknowingly,

   distances lengthen

Gaps form and 

  waver all around……”

Gaps are invisible

   but filled with our lives

Distance is felt when,

  from the blue, a note arrives

Then we know…..

    how long it has been.

“Distance was a dangerous thing, she knew. Distance changed people.”

~ Rohinton Mistry,  A Fine Balance

Author’s Note: the first three stanza’s were penned by one of my characters (Dez) from Episode 130 of Situationally Theirs. It is a story of two sisters that I wrote throughout the COVID 19 pandemic.
