WINTER


this rose bush at the end of the driveway is a reminder ......
i must wait
in the cold
wait in the emptiness
wait in the barren time
new life will come
cold will turn to warm
empty become full
and beauty and new life will bloom
so in this cold and empty time
i must remember spring

a lovely poem Eileen. it has a ring of truth in it. cold will pass as will other traumas and the spring will appear, the chemos will end and the hair will reappear.

sounds like you had a busy weekend.

we have an appointment on thursday at 1030, right?
