Yesterday's ink
gives a view
into my thoughts
of you
back then
Back then
tomorrow was never
spoken
Today's view
has been tarnished
by the soot
on the panes of glass
Smoke from the fire
that once burned
For you
Back then

He smiles to himself remembering the moments shared his smile reflects a lifetime of laughter & tears pleasure and pain his skin remembers her touch his soul remembers her love although she's gone nothing can take away the reason for his smile Copyright (C) 2021 Penny Wilson

*By Penny Wilson And Charles Robert Lindholm Deep asleep and dreaming The vision of your face Came to me last night With sweet lips smiling and your eyes sparkling You came to hold my hand and walk with me down memory lane I felt your touch and saw our love I can't wait until the dreams end and we can be together again Dancing with the angels where we have a never ending future to share Copyright © 2021 Penny Wilson And Charles Robert Lindholm All Rights Reserved – 05-26-2021 *My Dear Friend, Chuck over at The Reluctant Poet collaborated with me on
this poem. We bounced the piece back & forth via emails until we came up with
what you see here. It was a joy to work with Chuck. I hope you enjoy our
endeavor and that you will take a moment and visit Chuck's blog too!
The stars
in the night sky
look down on me
I imagine yours
to be the brightest
a beacon
when I become lost
so I can
find my way
back
to myself

I keep my memories
and wishes
tucked inside a box The vessel unimportant Its what’s inside the box that calls to me Inside I hear the beating of your heart smell your skin and taste your lips you
now on wingtips
left behind memories
nestled beside wishes Copyright © 2021 Penny Wilson
those places in my heart the empty spaces I look beyond the clutter of today sifting yesterday's dreams those never quite formed looking to make solid what was but mist Copyright (C) 2021 Penny Wilson

In Memoriam: Sue Vincent — Word Craft ~ Prose & Poetry
I awoke
with a start.
The taste
of your kiss
still lingering
on my lips.
For answers
I look
to the night sky,
telling my secrets
to the stars.
The man in the moon
listens
but offers
no guidance.

I've got love songs on repeat and write love letters in the dark I search the shadows for your light with my chest hollow None of my usual tricks work I'll do anything to stop this decline Anything to break the fall Copyright (C) 2021 Penny Wilson Photo found on Pixabay
Upon waking, I cling to the dream of lying in your arms Just a yearning Tonight, perhaps I'll dream of you again Copyright (C) 2021 Penny Wilson
