Linda

Jerry Reynolds

 

Watching a ball game together
Sharing a glass of sweet-tea
Cheese and crackers
Taking a nap on the sofa.
Loves deepest truths
Are not the ones screeching-
But those whispering.

    Who got to take the nap on the sofa, you or Linda?
    Simple warm picture painted in very few words. Felt it Jerry.

    Yes as SC said - beautiful. Those simple times with friends and family are wonderful.

    pitch perfect in tone, as ever Jerry
    a beautiful dedication, acknowledging
    that quintessential aspect
    of unremarkable, in our everyday lives
    we seldom
    take the time to highlight and appreciate..
    thanks for sharing dear poet

    • Jerry Reynolds

      Thanks, L.B. Unremarkable moments are very easy to take for granted.

      • L. B. Mek

        then hooray for those gifted
        with the capacity - within wisdom, to notice them...
        and more-so
        for those, who choose to poetically
        point them out
        and help the rest of us, do the same!
