The Touch and the Time – Written May 2008 (Aged 33)

The Touch and the Time

i have realised
that i have to clean out
and i have to rearrange
this emotional ride
i can no longer sustain
i have realised
certain people, like birds
need to fly away
carry on without me
in new and exciting ways
i have realised
that sometimes it is fleeting
the touch and the time
and the special greeting




James Garratt – May 2020
