since you left my hearts grew weak ,since you left its hard to speak, above this earth you now fly why you left I know not why, Summers day is a lesser glow, I'm even sadder amoung the snow, An angel you where here on earth, but taken way I find no worth. Free my soul and mind I pray from remembering your lovingness every day. since you left I feel less glad to heaven I am a little mad. since you left my days are unfilled as each memory I'm my mind I find a chill. Forever lost to my touch I anger long and suffer much. since you left a world darkens more as angry tears flow ever more. since you left.

By sand drift and sea
a girl in bright feathered green
Gatsby and champagne
Lend me your cloche
flappers dancing the Charleston
jazz and etiquette
tennis racquet times
romance in the Duesenberg
picnic on the Sound

Haiku. 575 (Nature)
one spoonful of earth
teeming with tiny creatures
each with huge purpose
Senryu. 575 (Human Foibles)
youths stared down at phones
a full rainbow blessed the sky
alas they missed it

In shadows we roamed,
Echoes of love now faded,
Lost souls find solace.

About this poem:
In the haiku, "In shadows we roamed" sets the scene of a relationship that once existed, where the lovers were intertwined in each other's lives, sharing moments both bright and dark. "Echoes of love now faded" signifies that the intensity and passion of their love have diminished over time, leaving behind only faint remnants of what once was. Finally, "Lost souls find solace" suggests that despite the loss and heartache, there is still hope for healing and finding peace in the aftermath of lost love. It speaks to the resilience of the human spirit and the possibility of moving forward despite the pain.

caught in the moment
reflection in a window
who covets their time
It's a sad sad song
beyond all hope of appeal
holding your photo
stealing from Dylan:
Along the watchtower
all the women came and went
princes kept the view
