Wistful


Last train to nowhere

She’s come to stay

Gazing at the mist

In her heart

As it disperses with this suffering

Of space and time

So sweetly.


Grabbing the key long hidden

To open her captive soul

A gust of wind

Unexpected

Moves her hair

So as to consolidate

Her whole presence

With the place.

I see a lady of elegence and charm with thoughts of a baby in the clouds, which pours rain out from her crying heart!

A lovely poem with a great inspiration of motherly nature.

Thank you. Love love, Andrew. Bye.

"On Shadow Feet" art piece is inspired and inspiring, I could meditate well using that piece, giving it any significance that came to mind.

Fifty-five words? You sure make them sound like a hundred-and-fifty-five!
My life is full of gusts of wind unexpected--but I had never found words until now.

Thank you for a fine 55

Oh shoot! That was the LAST train? Now I'll never get Nowhere! (LOL!)

"Wistful" is a great title for this 55, Dulce.

moving away from pain, we all need that. Take a train to nowhere away from pain.

Releasing the soul - something we can fear, yet should all do. Follow the dream and fulfill.

Is she consoled???

So much mist and suffering is there anything tangible to grab hold of

Lovely

You just created a delicate and enchanting and timeless figure that exists- I think- in every woman's heart...

Such a lovely, poignant piece, Dulce...I feel the solitude and aloneness of your soul.
