time, wait, still

Meandering with my thoughts as I do
I heard his goodbye
but I stopped
thought
for a moment then another
I hadn't heard his
hello
a puzzle of words and verse
occupied my mind
fitting together
emotions
still I wondered about that
how was it goodbye
before there was
a hello
I had heard the goodbye
years ago maybe it
still echoed to me
after all this
time,
still,
wait.

Either that or the of the SOB snuck thru

the basement door. I really want to be analyticial this morning but at 6:13 on a Sunday it is just too early to be profound. Your piece read nicely as they alawys do. I will stick around if for no other reason than to see what's on your clever and sharp mind my friend.

With admiration,
