I have wandered
around your mind
(I hope you don't mind)
invited in
by a poem
it smiled:
'Come in...come in! '
And so
here I am
having bread & butter & tea
with your Past
having a laugh
with your Present
listening intensely
to your Future sing
'WHAT EVER WILL BE... WILL BE! '
Picking up each
unique memory
reflecting how it
catches & holds
the light
(the delight in life)
having a good old natter
with your own good self
playing Snap!
with our synapses
tickling the old grey matter
until
a passing thought
& on a tangent I leave
your smile
as you tuck your hair behind your ear
and I find
myself upon
the whiteness
of this page
like Breughel's
HUNTERS RETURNING IN THE SNOW
trekking across
its vastness
leaving a trail
of clumsy footprints
made of words
leaving footsteps
echoing
somewhere in your mind.

Being a friend of Ruthie I can really appreciate this poem for her. You have some wonderful images here and I love 'your smile, as you tuck your hair behind your ear' and the way you treck across the snow with clumsy footprints' is so original. Now I can see why Ruthie sings your praises. 10 love Karin
