Greet Not the Egret with Regret ~ Monday, November 6, 2023

I wait for my turn

as keynote speaker to tell
my story, my tale

Each day, I might learn
recovery is too hard
in the past, I fell
cast aside, too pale
as if love were just a word

No one drops their guard

I am now alone

as if I once had a choice
may all be as one

Enticing a voice
restless as a child unheard
insistent and strong
callous to forget
as loud as pre-dawn birdsong

Nothing new, regret
