to be on the mark
my leaving is
but harbingers of
a long ago damaged heart
gasping for breath
aching to mend
these tatters I resew
skiffs seasoned by
age old winds
moorings to harbors
long left behind
now vague phantoms of thought
whose lessons refined
this woman I am
standing before you today
experience's own outcome
half a life time lived
thus far
foundation
for my better second half
'Act 2'
The glorious deep yet to be explored
the summation of the first half lived
and so fully absorbed..............
