Nandini

Nandini

You felt my pain
And made it your own

You felt my anger
And made it your own


Until one day
Your time had come to go

I felt your pain
And knew it was time
To let you go on to your last journey

Heavy lay your head in my hand
You amber eyes looking into mine

One last time you trusted me
As so often you did before

To do the right thing
To make you whole again

Go in peace my friend
Until one day
You will great me
At the rainbow bridge
Guiding me again

And I will trust you
Following your lead
As I had done so many times before

I have filled to many journals to count and most of them during my time of grief, when my husband passed away, when my beloved dog passed away, when I went on my 9 months overseas odyssey, filling the pages with my thoughts, my sorrows, my pains, my triumphs and my defeats.  Reading through some of it now I find those pages where heavy tears fell down on them, but I continued writing, there were days when I became so angry I literally threw the book into the next corner, -to much french blood in my veins, lol- but I continued writing. I simply went for the jugular....

Painted Poetry™ - An Ode

For a long time I had this idea of combining my poetry with my painting. Today I can say  I am getting closer in accomplishing this. Here is my latest Feather painting combined with one of my poems using Photoshop. This is not yet where I want to be but I am getting there...
