i am explaining a few things
when i was young
i knew everything
now i am not young
i am certain of only two things
i will never get around to sorting my sewing box
i will never be a canonised saint
no longer do i ponder
the mysteries of religion
nor the mysteries of the universe
now i ponder
the tarragon in the chicken
the paprika in the potatoes
or
what it would be like sitting with you
staring into your log fire
without social distancing
The photo, the message, the way your poem resonated with me add up to job well done!
ReplyDeleteThis is incredibly heartfelt!❤️ Hopefully the time will come soon when we won't need social distancing.
ReplyDeleteSounds like wisdom to me!
ReplyDeleteoh, most def I know less now than then ~
ReplyDeleteNice things to ponder! :)
ReplyDeleteThere is more now to know, that you don't know.
ReplyDeleteStuff teh sewing box. I have a fire, bring chicken. The social distancing's a bugger though.
