Inspired by and written for Simply 6 Minutes – thank you, Christine

At Samhain, the veil between mortal and immortal worlds is at its thinnest. Having said that, feeling the spirits close and around you is not the same as seeing and being able to hold that loved one. I wish….

I Feel You
Form: Brisbane Sonnet

Today I feel you there right beside me
So close I should be able to hold you
Was that a breeze or your breath on my neck?
Yet only with my eyes closed can I see
While my heart still feels and still longs for you
I wish Fate had dealt a different deck

Here in the living I miss you so much
I miss your laughter and I miss your smile
I miss all the love we had between us
And I wish I could simply feel your touch
So to ease…
