an evening thunderstorm
caught me
without my rain gear
and
the brown bag prophet
caught me
before
reaching my car door
offering shelter
beneath his
beach umbrella
he said
i was
just thinking about
this woman
i knew
lord she was fine
but
we lost touch
that made me
begin
to hate the fact
that i cannot
go back in time
and
change
a few things
people
i
should’ve
said
i love you to
and
others
something less
accepting
but
i realize
i cannot go back
so i’ve
also
begun to realize
that each moment
of the day
is precious
he waited
for me to open
the car door
and
i
and
my impatience
felt
rewarded
good one… very good one Charles. This is why I try to treat human beings right…
This seems to be what successful aging is all about. We have some regrets – but let them go when we realize they can result in a better today. And it is all about relationships. Nice, Charlie.
You are right Charlie, we cannot go back and get yesterday, but we can start anew. I love walking in the rain, enjoyed this one.
I absolutely loved being fully immersed in your amazing words…reading them whilst hearing them was incredible! Thank you…for sharing in this way, in so very personal a manner. I am intrigued…
