Loneliness visits
when stranded alone
Confirming the emptiness
—lost to bemoan
The darker the moment
the thicker it spreads
To lie and to cover
—my spirit in dread
It blocks every motion
I make to get out
Its shroud to enshadow
—within and without
As somber it tenants
it knows all the while
Its life but a memory
—the moment you smile
(Dreamsleep: May, 2022)
Cartesian Gift
Rest assured in the knowledge you are
—without having to know why
(Dreansleep: May, 2022)
'Walkin After Midnight'
When death sent out its calling card
the heavens came in view
Psalms to reach the Angel’s ears
one voice had broken through
Grace within her every word
each feeling soul infused
Patsy singing from above
—to bless the chosen few
(Remembering Patsy Cline: May, 2022)

I love these poems; the beautiful last stanza of the first, and the sweet sentiment of the second. So very well captured.
Thanks Bella...so very kind of you.
