"The Author-Preneur with Something To Say That You'll Love To Read." #authorpreneurTJM

A Space Apart

I have found a space

along the river - a space


which the forces of a 

life lived hurriedly 


would wish to shake loose

from its moorings in sanity

and repose.  Shake loose 


and spit up on some other

shore - far away from here,


far away from the simplicity

which makes this space so fair.


A space which I shall shelter

as it even now shelters me.  


How could I leave?  

How might I depart?

How may I go?  


From here along the river

the goose weaves its honking

into the notes of  a song 

I know.  A song that is written 

onto the backs of the hatch at my

feet and among the mare's tails

wisping overhead.


Do not move,

Do not leave,

Only stay and go

down deep.
