why must she be left alone
to fight this losing battle
make decisions that will change
the course of life dreams,
hopes, and wonders
is there a silver lining in
that low hovering cloud
is there a ray of sunglight
on these dark days
will the full moon guide
her to answer the unanswerable
does she have the fight left
or is it too late
is she changed forever
doomed by a disease
doomed by the abandonment
scarred by the fictitious
port in the storm
will she grow old alone
doomed to a life of solace
was this all practice for
a life predestined
is it no wonder she leans
towards solitude?
Had she known her fate
all along - deep and intuitive?
Will strength be gained once more?

so many questions... but of one thing i'm sure, she'll regain her strength. too much hope and beauty in these words for it not to happen...
gather the harvest of your dreams, plant and renew,
the season of new growth comes
Noelle, beautiful poem.. yet, the heart so broken "does she have the fight left, or is it too late"... I have asked myself that so many times in the past few years.
Thanks for visiting me. To answer your question about my dog, Rollo- he is of the Havanese breed. This breed is originally from Cuba and a cousin to the Maltese breed.
Have a beautiful day, my friend :)
this is beautiful and bittersweet, a beginning of a novel, perhaps, i am curious where she goes from here and what her decisions may bring..
think about it you are a magnificent writer and this sounds like a wonderful novel!!! i believe you can do it
OOh...I like the novel idea...hmmm you never know!!
Thank you Shadow..I believe you are right!!!
Larry, you're the best as always!
Roxy, girl...that must be an eternal question! or global rather. Anyway, I KNEW Rollo was Havanese!! My dog Curly is half havanese and half poodle...I see him in Rollo. It's amazing how I can see Curly's havanese "look" in other dogs. Is Rollo a little Clown? Curly sure is!
Ok...sorry gang, I'm rambling. :)

excellent! questions i relate to very much so, having faith, that the answer is yes, I can!
Renewal is everything. She can if she wills to gain her strength back. Solitude may be a temporary status, but not solution. Here is where she can contemplate and decide. And, then, open new doors and windows to something fresh.
Keep writing such heartfelt pieces!!!
beautiful. So many unanswered questions.
very interesting and reliable questions indeed..
I don't believe that life is ever hopeless. I think there are times in our lives that seem to be so - but that silver lining around the cloud is always there... it just sometimes takes awhile to find it.
I just adore this... Speaks so much to me!
Thank you S.I.F. ...I knew you'd totally get this one!
Felicitas, I will wait for that silver lining. :)
