shards of fractured days
slice deeply through battered skin
blood spills through the cracks
heartless world mocks, looks away
but love observes and binds wounds

Beautiful!
Thank you, Jonathan! I never told you this, but I love seeing that blue eye pop up on my comments! Have a great weekend.
Why thank you! And you, too!
😊⛄
Lol…I like to laugh so hard I cry. Does that count?
Well, maybe there is a sweet middle ground…a few giggles, couple of tears…
🔥⛄(bipolar emoji response…Lol)
Girlfriend, you are too funny…
💋⛏…😢🤣…🐕🐈…😍😠…☕🍦 (bipolar emoji pairings…)
😜🤔😉🤣yep….
A very good poem, Tanya. Love does “observe” and binds wounds, just as we should be doing. Excellent point made in your thoughts…
Steve 🙂
Thank you, Steve! I think well-meaning people often add to the wound because they don’t “observe” first. We need to spend time listening.
Have a wonderful weekend!😊
Man, is that ever the truth! We do need to LISTEN to others, not just hear what is said and then forget about it.
Enjoy your day, my friend 🙂
You also, Steve!
Tanya, I wish your the best time in 2017! ❣🍀❣

Ah, those subtle ties of love. You’ve got to love them.
Yes, indeed. Real love heals…
Have a wonderful New Year’s Weekend, Roger!
Tanya can I just take the time tell you that your work is outstanding and I am extremely grateful that you take the time to read my periodical (sometimes weird) posts. Apologies for any choice language.. I look forward to reading more next year sorry I haven’t liked them all it’s purely time related but one day I will catch up!!!!.. Happy new year to you. X
Happy New Year to you also and best wishes for 2017! Thank you for the encouraging words. That means a lot to me!
You have a way with words that few writer’s (I have read) compare. Your words seem carefully chosen adding value and meaning to each post. I wish you much creativity and deep felt emotions in future writings.
Wishing you and your family a very HEALTHY and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Thank you, Jonathan! That means a great deal to me. I wish you and yours a very happy and prosperous New Year as well, and keep up all the great work on your blog! It’s really informative and inspiring.😊

Happy New Year to Tanya and her precious family!
Thank you, Tiffany! The very best 2017 to you and yours as well! I still need to e-mail you. I haven’t forgotten, but I have been swamped with the holidays…
There’s no rush at all. We are always connecting one way or another!
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!😊
Same to you Tanya – May peace be upon us.
And the world…😊
The world needs love. Love is Everything. Thank you for your love. 🙂
