The delight…to be a feather again instead of a plummet, to float not to drag.

She did not need much, wanted very little. A kind word, sincerity, fresh air, clean water, a garden, kisses, books to read, sheltering arms, a cozy bed, and to love and be loved in return.

Your Shoes

Today I saw a man wearing your shoes. Not YOUR shoes. But ones identical to the ones you wore the day I met you. When I noticed you were just as disheveled as I was. The ones that were slightly torn at the seams Not because that was the style But because you hadn’t yet needed to replace them. Those shoes I used to see laying on my bedroom floor or that used to leave prints in the sand of my front yard tracing the tire tracks of your car parked under my oak tree. Those worn out jalopies you trudged around with were the same you used to walk away.

I saw a man wearing your shoes today and I laughed… I always hated those God damn ugly shoes.
