I made you in my vision and my mind
I miss you, love, so slow the seconds wind.
Posted on June 11
It seemed to me my vision and my mind
A template made to put into the world
Brought you into being by my side.
I miss you, love, so slow the seconds wind.
I creep into the space between the words
I made you in my vision and my mind
Is there only chaos, no design?
Are we dust around the spaces whirled?
I bring you into being by these lines
I smell your skin and see your eyes alive
I move my head ,oh you have disappeared
It seems both from my vision and my mind
Why did all the pit props fall down blind?
I crept under coal, with darkness smeared
A person alien to humankind
Where is my death, when it’s no longer feared?
Where is my love when no-one else is here.
I imagined you in vision and in mind
I pulled you into being, which one died?

How I make myself feel better..
Words can help buoy you up. Making every minute count. Making memories. Only the snobbish and arrogant, the ever so healthy, mock aphorisms as trite. When things seem impossibly gloomy, when I don’t think I can take much more bad news, I turn to another wicked old friend. In the past I called her the emphysemic pit pony, because she has short legs and used to wheeze when she pushed my wheelchair uphill. That was long ago, before getting old became unavoidable and before I bought a power chair for going any distance. Now she’s over 70, still has short legs, still smokes one roll-up a day and employs the most dogged, brilliant, multipurpose saying of all:
Every day above ground is a good day.
How my heart sings
