Finally we

Week 271 of Three Line Tales

two people in a boat on a canal

have arrived at a place that will allow us to get away from the life we have lived for far too long and we have stressed and relaxed but not fully cleared our minds of all that has happened this past year.

For all we know is the door that we have been waiting for is about to open and there is no going back once we walk in.

Knowing that this so-called peace may not last longer than two weeks but to make the most of what we have is to be grateful.

Poetry

You’re precious

To me like these flowers

So vulnerable

So fragile

So perfectly imperfect

To be near you is sometimes hard to handle but your smell is so intoxicating.

How many more springs will you be around I wonder?

To finally

Have a moment of peace and be happy about the things that will or may not happen today.

I know this hot cup of tea will ease my soul and get me ready for the chill of the day.

But I can only hope for warmer days ahead.

And the strength to get through any struggles in my way.

For there is an ending to my story but it’s up to me to make it a good one.

Poetry

To laugh

With you again feels like a memory of a long time ago.

When things were so calm, and panic wasn’t always around the corner.

When life seemed like we had so much time on our hands and it wasn’t going to run out anytime soon either.

But the reality is more real than ever and now laughing with you is something I treasure the most these days.
