Darling Eyes of Amelia

Your face patterns over the September smile of an innocent child
Living and ghost breathe as one, chase the sun down the long lawn and into the trees
For these moments I remain at peace with my own solitude
Banish the dark and the demons that crawl through the mind and block the pores of rational thought
I am not yet transitioned, still in the wilderness of self pity
Wandering nomad whose eyes always look upon the desolation of Winter not the renewal of Spring
Facing and phased by uncertainty, drenched in the fountain of doubt
An empty voice screaming in the darkness, too lost to be heard
In the meadow where we once lay, watching shadows draw their darker shades
My eyes see nothing of the soft hues of sunwashed flowers, just the creeping plague of thistle
Wine once sipped under sturdy oak by the side of the lake
Lingers bitter on the palate, a slow seeping poison that glories in the resentment of loss
Your image still remains, in the clear blue darling eyes of Amelia
A smile that cools the ravaged heart, sweet balletic angel who dances by the fireside
As we lay each year on your sacred ground a single deep red rose
She takes my hand and softly says, "Please daddy, do not cry"

Well hello handsome.
This is sad but so sweet.
It's so good to see you posting. So many of the oldies don't post any more and I find it very sad.
Great writing, my dear friend.
big huggs,

Yes such a sad one but it is so true as well - we live on in those we leave behind whether it be children or our family friends etc.
written with such empathy and emotion.
Loved it Steve. Keep writing, you have so much talent

| I used to cry inconsolably at the age of 3 because I missed my daughter Amelia so desperately, I begged skelli to bring her to me , I sat in the rain crying behind my neighbours house opposite my future school in the alley ,, strange that she seemed older than me xxx |
