(((In The Palm Of Your Hand))) Poem by Theodora (Theo) Onken

(((In The Palm Of Your Hand)))

Rating: 3.7


I kept the ticket stub-

......And everything else from-
...Our last theater date;

I am remembering it again-nostalgic;
That once entrancing scene-
......The tenderness
....That had wedged itself
...Inside of my psyche
Bursting itself open-an eternal flame;

Today i look for anything that reminds
.........Me of act two-
...And the Stage of our relationship
...Before the curtain call...
...That had me in the palm of your hand-
...And craving much more;

Alas, remembering has its negatives;
...........I become disturbed!
...For the theater and all of its flame-filled thoughts-
...All become wrong!
..........For at the very last-

...The Fat Lady Has Sung Her Song;

Hey Meggie, I would have thought somebody would have told you at least over at Starlite. I have been very ill. Mary and all had prayer poem for me over there as well. I am not well yet. Have multiple problems and in need of 2-3 doctors. Its good to see you dear one. When i have the breath or the strength i write. Time does awful things to our bodies Meggie...Heart, lungs, kidneys. Always love to you my little Indigo Girl. Theo
