Spice Rack - 4. Discovery

Perhaps a new flavor? If I made mistakes, they are mine, and nobody else's.

Your face

writes a sad tale

of bitter disappointments

etched around your mouth and nose in

small type;

and yet

your eyes, alive with merriment,

regale me with stories

of pure delight

to come.

AC Benus and Asamvav111 were very helpful in making this collection come to fruition. They have my deep thanks. You are most welcome to leave a comment, if you like.

The indomitable human spirit. It rises from defeat and disappointment again and again... it's why we rule the earth :) . Seriously, I see a lot of what you describe in so many, especially in our own communities... God bless those who keep trying... you made me think of my own Watcher series (shameless plug)... but really, the great loss, the grief and the pain, yet there is life in those eyes and they are ready to live and share themselves again... I love ... etched... in small type... such an apt and wonderful description... you tell a story in measured and meager words... well done, my friend... cheers... Gary....
