Thoughts are sent up in the air with hopes they will reach you as we stare at the same moon Letting the thousands of miles between us shrink into meaninglessness But endless days stretch into future loneliness and I find myself wishing to be gifted patience to understand that this is not forever Feeling incomplete as if a limb has been removed and without which I cannot function Some days I walk with a limp Others I feel incapacitated I wish upon night stars for your return That I might be whole again Copyright © 2021 Christine Bolton - Poetry for Healing All Rights Reserved Stream of Consciousness - Up Word of the Day - Patient RDP - Incomplete

Silver-grey of early evening sky shines its light on my still waters waking me from a reverie My sparkling diamonds dance on gently rolling ripples as buoyant ducks bounce Twilight swathes me in its purple cloth and I wear amethyst gems Silhouetted birds in black fly low returning to their nests as stillness falls in silence The night brings an indigo blanket adorned with sequined stars Reflecting on my mirrored surface Gently I rock to sleep in the glow of a silvery moon rising slowly in the darkness Copyright © 2021 Christine Bolton - Poetry for Healing All Rights Reserved Mish is hosting D'Verse Poets tonight and has prompted us to write a poem from the perspective of a color.
