"Ah me, but where are now the songs I sang
When life was sweet because you call’d them sweet?"
— Christina Rossetti (Poems of Christina Rosetti)
It is amazing how sweet confirmation can be
sincere words said as I walked across the street warmed my soul
against the cold night breeze
a renewed strength and a bonfire
alight in my chest.
Found strength because you called it strength
and I believed you.
Never underestimate the power tangled in thoughtful words...
sweet to both the tongue and ear.
So glad it is Friday and so thankful for this tiny respite.
I'm off to meet my beau for lunch - indian food on a blanket in Franklin park anyone?
