    Reassurances don't always require spoken words - only meditation.

    Returning

    RETURNING

    I search for my strength,

                and there You are.

    Here I am,

                wanting to let go.

    Comfortably naked.

                Here You are.

    There I am.

     

    I search for myself,

                and there You are.

    You come near

                and I become absent

    Vaporized, morphed.

                Here we are.

    There I am.

     

    I search for You,

                and there You are

    Here I am.

                Connected again.

    A piece of one whole.

                Here we are.

    Here we are.

    The golden beauty of silence surrounded you during this vulnerable time. Strength arrives through much meditation and patience. An exquisitely fluid write.

    And extremely well written poem Jean. Why not "here we are/ where we are." But the marvelous ghostly presence as the changing of time takes place within the depth of your poem is truly a spectacular event to experience when reading through your poem. It is almost like a shape shifter in presentation. // A poet friend// RH peat

    What is given when we seek our source... :) I am grateful.

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

    Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
