Loneliness



Loneliness
found me this week,
and sat beside me.
I did not know what to do.
I'd not seen her for years
and didn't know how to speak to her.
What to say?
And so I stilled myself and waited for her to speak first
and in so doing,
I found my breath.

    Hi Sweetie...
    I hope loneliness has left her seat, and you and your heart are enjoying it yourselves now.

    I love the shawl you finished for Donnie, when I went to her blog I saw her modeling it. She was so thrilled and you did such an awesome job.

    Well sweetie I thank you for the beautiful share, we must do lunch one day soon.

    Many hugs and much love, Sherry
