i wag my finger

by Charlie Morgan

my pomes suffer but are not lonely.
leave a trail, a railroadtrack to my past,
an only God-knows future awaiting;

words, and people changing, allow your dance partner's
dull and drab shoes to be, in time, wiped and shined;
our evening of dreams whirl away in a lingering wisp,
never to materialize, never become real to the touch.

yet, i near-smother the happiness in my heart, for shame.
hurtfully, i survey local and worldly pain, anguish.

compare mine.

become sad.

Oh, but just so you know, your words(and your heart) have been heard (speaking for here) by the mere mortals who love and adore - both the words, and your heart.
