By my side (55 word poem)
You with me,
A child
picking up pebbles,
hunting four leaf clovers,
running along primrose paths,
licking lemons sitting on doorsteps,
You with me,
A youth
in a restaurant full of people,
gazing into my eyes as I gazed back
at life aromatic with pain and strife,
Loneliness so faithful,
You’re always by my side......
