Rabbit Stew

by Brian Francis

On the paths, we walk, while living our lives We meet others intersecting each other in time There are people of all colors, all kinds, all creeds Honest, deceptive, brave, fearful, fair or mean At times we pause, in interaction, a moment or so Or walk on together before parting our ways Each with a different path to go Emotion's strong rip tides wash over our being Affecting perception like a remedy gone awry Joy and sadness rain on the soul in torrents at times And shadows can dance intriguing the mind The storms of emotion that haunt the nights Gloom like a fog hiding comforts unseen Passing along through the horrors and frights Yet smiles are part of the paths that we walk Warm feelings evoked through memory's eyes Embraces of love a heart's solace and cure Protection from all the painful trials of life When sharing the path with another in hand Bound firmly together each step of the way In unison achieving what together was planned

It's good stuff when you find someone who brings that kind of energy out in you. So much powerhouse, well-done imagery in this, man. I really liked it.
