Thank you to the Bag Lady for the challenge.
Prismatic Embrace
The shortest walks can be the longest
when absence wounds and steals,
yet tonight
I faced my fear
and walked our walk alone,
the rain kissed softly.
just the right sort of melancholy,
and for a time I was abstracting puddles
and feeling my way,
till I noticed the light of your love,
a prismatic embrace,
reaching down to me.

What a tender poem, Paul. I love the graphic you chose to accompany your poem. I will start a new watercolor in my painting class tomorrow and I think I will use this one for inspiration!
