The last stanza really got me along with the rest.

It was very very lovely, one of those you read when you need something beautiful in your day.

Thank you!

I love this poem Andy! Excellent writing. I heart the sentiment as I feel the same way about writing.

Great progression:"she said, "OH, he would never do that"
but, he did and never told her

It's funny how the fruit fly can't be caught
It took me years to figure out
that the wind from my hand
pushed them beyond my reach"...

From beginning to end a wonderful reflective piece!
