A Hole Filled In Me Poem by Howard Johnson
A Hole Filled In Me
She is strong and I am not
She filled a hole in me that was hard to spot
I am greatful for that she gave to me
At risk it may be
A payment I want to render
unto you
Finding you personaly to give the due
Should I choose a street
Or something with a beat
A path
With growth all over
Are there perils to be found?
Should it be that from drunkenness
There will stumbling all around
Is there a grass covered hill
that on top you can see
Or it may be a small incline up to me
Might you lay amoungst the spring time flowers,
Dreaming it may be.
What choice will you do?
That I may come to be by you
Disconnected cynicals ways of living
Am I not
Do I have strength to pervail over myself
A choice should be made
Or should I not
Like on hot day
trying grab a heat wave.
Do you fit bettween the beat of my heart
Has the stress from being there
Torn you apart
Is love for purchase
Could it be
Or is it just risk free
Hello, and since you asked, I will let you know what I think but by email, later today. Some typo's and such. Some lovely thoughts here.
You felt this one deeply, Howard and it shows. Keep up the good work. Kind regards, Sandra

nothing compares to the feeling to be filled by a person... I have been there and I miss it... lovely penned dear friend! thanks for sharing!
I enjoyed this, a good, solid read. I loved your language in this stanza, Do you fit bettween the beat of my heart Has the stress from being there Torn you apart This was beautiful imagery, fitting between the beat of a heart, it just makes my own heart sing a bit. Now, this stanza had me thinking and puzzling a bit, Is love for purchase Could it be Or is it just risk free I always think of loving as one of the greatest risks you can take. And in some ways, not loving is another risk. But I never really think of love as risk free. So I liked that you took a different tact. It made me think and ponder, which I enjoy and I even suspect it is good for me. Peace, L&T
Howard. You are doing good. Your thinking and feeling. Many of us do not know how. Fred
