Date Night?

GenXer Shamrocker ☘️

    As Saoirse is home she’s thinking about all she’s heard from Sterling. She wonders if going out tonight is really what’s best for him? Sure she knows he’s got a lot that needs to be worked on. That doesn’t mean though that she bails when there’s a need in someone. Sterling arrives and Saoirse asks if they can talk. She leads him to her flower garden; for a brief walk. Sterling knows there will be no date for tonight. He himself is not blind. Most people can’t handle a pain such as his; talking with Saoirse helped him realize this. Saoirse was a blessing to him today. Sometimes in one’s life; one person is all it takes. Both decide for now Sterling will get the healing he truly deserves before he decides to date her. See; sometimes in life all a person needs is be heard and truly understood before things can turn around for the greater good.

    Another chapter fills this poem. Communication is part of a relationship and it builds bridges of understanding. Nicely written it flows well and is clear in its meaning. Nicely done
