It Was All There
it was all there
the comfort and the security
but like so many
there were hills –
mountains and pastures new
but weeds grow instead
happy moments, too few
it was all there
just in front of you
but it blew in the breeze
tears too many,
wet like dew
the eyes so round and empty
love without the clues
James Garratt – May 2009
