Betweeness.
Between yesterday
and tomorrow there lies the display
of today's fresh bounty
readily able to take a chance
knowing fate brooks no need for delay.
Between solemn
grey nowness and yonder's infinity
distant shores tantalize
with frustration's resistance yet
provide right timing to furnish relief.
Between waking
and sleeping there exists somewhere
of rarely dreamed freedom,
an oasis where lonely people
find peace in which love can be shared.
Between heaven
and paradise lies the state of new-song
for true hearts who yearn
to experience in warm oneness
reasons for bliss in the feel of belonging.

Beautiful write Fay.
Exquisite, beautifully structured poem, Fay. Most impressive work!
Damaged soul said it like it is. I might add dreamy exquisite imagery.
Kudos.
Another superb offering - thanks so much for posting it Fay.
Lovely write. I got in a big tangle about 'now'. The next minute was not the same 'now' as the previous minute's 'now'.
Then someone said to me 'now, now', which made me more confused! Much more of that and I shall be a jibbering wreck!
(Do shut up, erm, now, Orchi! heehee.)
