    Lucinda, throughout the years I have enjoyed listening and taking too heart much of your art – deciding to share of yourself, in such a heartfelt manner causes in me the desire to share

    the below is a poem I wrote to my Mother for her birthday – I am sure she would not mind (seeing us from Heaven) that I now share it with you & your other fans & friends

    “JUNK DRAWER”

    slide open the time capsule
    peer at what is, was, and may be
    dull finish, glint of light
    triggering memories, present to past

    a key for a lock, possibly
    cents of history shine from crud
    screws, nails, tape affixes the ages
    needle with thread repairs the soul

    photo of youth embracing maturity
    edges bent, glossy marred
    both frozen, revealing timeless joy
    melts the despair, the fatigue

    deeper below
    discover the ring, simple ‘n scarred
    cracker jack lent
    your heart surges, remembering

    cycles of time plummet then soar
    events combines with objects
    soothing passages of reality
    Destiny fulfilled
    The drawer resumes its slumber

    D.B. Reising

    thank you for sharing so much of yourself with so many……

    you are most welcome, thank you for the kind remark,

    when I finish a poem, it is always with the hope that someone, somewhere, can connect with it, hoping that in some small way, the gathering of words will offer positive emotions to surface and remain firmly in place
