In a Silver Canoe


                                                               ... in a silver canoe on half moon lake ... I drift

                              ... the truth does not come cheap     

                                                                                   ... I've loved too carelessly

  1. The poem is internal. It deals kindly with a subject we let drift but admit to only in the privacy our own thoughts. The artist, Miranda, is well-named.

  2. Better to have loved carelessly than not at all, right? ;)
    I have been peeking at your wonderful poems but don't comment often. Sorry. Was happy to see them again. :)

  4. How does one learn what "too carelessly" might be without going past that edge? We should never let ourselves be defined by fear.

    1. There is more than one way to define carelessly. I have not always been as careful as I should have been with other people's hearts. And, I have gone, "past that edge," on more than one occasion and it allowed me to live a very full, rich life. Now, I'm not afraid, just cautious. :)
