Taken too soon



Park bench built for two
How odd
I sit and wait for you.

I know you won't come
You never do
But, I'll sit and wait
and hope
today is the day, you do.

Sounds silly when I say it out loud
"Just once,
 I'd like to not look for your face in a crowd."
I can envision you anywhere
I can envision you with anyone.
It's seeing you with me ~
That's the key!

I hear laughter and I have to look
Sadly, it's no longer you.
I smell your cologne and follow the scent
It leads me someone, but not you.

I read a sign that reminds me of you
Crazy, everything brings me to you ~
but you.

Did you have to go?
I've wished you back a million times
Then I read the note that
I've held onto for so long ~
"Taken too soon but never forgotten"
That's still as far as I've gotten.

Life

A fish who longs to be in water A bird who can not wait to fly A snake who wishes to recoil  A mole searching for better ground Sky so lifted to give space Moon afraid to show his shape Hides behind a blanket of night Stars blink to share their light Oceans anger crashes down Beaches lying with the sand Rocks climb to stand tall Wind watches them all fall  Mountain tall enough to roar Let loose his inner being Earth was burned to begin again. Gave life back to the living.

I'm not just a Mark

 I'm not just a Mark. I'm a Book Mark. Have you heard of them?  They are all the rage. They take you so many amazing places. They are highly revered, some not so much, but that's the beauty of the Book. There's something new in each one. From start to finish, and in between an adventure to go on,  a mystery to solve,  a lost love to cry over. Then this is where I come in... I Mark the spot.  Whenever you need to, grab a cup of coffee, a tissue, use the Bathroom...there I am. To keep your adventures right where you left them.
