a love letter...


the burden of no burden
is a heavy weight to bear
unseating my emotions
unleashing my despair

My arms no longer carry
a parcel I adored
up and down the stairway
in and out the door

needing so, your needing
loving so, my task
giving was receiving
of everything you asked

and now my dearest darling
as you travel on your way
please know that I love you
more than words can say...

Lucy Meskill

  5. Max was a very lucky dog. I am in this place with Chet Baker right now, relieved yet missing him so. 14--you done good.
