a poem of hope and thought in the darkness of night!

...on the wind tonight...

No lies on the wind tonight,
as the Celtic music wafts
thru the old empty house,
loud as it wants to be.
 
No excuses, no "evaluations",
no edging away, no temper tantrums.
no lies bent on selfishness,
no commitments made too casually
 
But it is quiet, the kind of quiet that
is far  too easy to get used to and,
that quiet becomes the norm,
no children playing, only a cats purr.
 
In that kind of quiet
age creeps in silently,
and makes a too deep bed.
Too deep a bed, hard to get out of.
BUT..
