it's always worth the days between

on conversations with Einstein Noodle

it's always worth
the days between --

the sparkle,
the tease,
the banter.

you are always in my heart
and on my mind --

I am never alone,
a stream of text
on my phone.

a random word,
a silly smile,
that gets us through
till next time
I get to
be with you.

The image of putting in a log a time to keep the fire going came to my mind. It is this little things that keeps us feeling the love. Beautifully written. N.

Those little moments are like little bursts of positive energy, the 'juice' that keeps us from falling or to keep moving. Or sometimes just a smile to know we are not alone and appreciated. Very nice to have such friends. Lovely poem. :)

This really makes me miss my best friend who died 2 summers ago. It's a rare gift & it feels so good to watch you treat it with the appreciation & specialness it deserves. Your expressions here are so vivid & simple & sincere, I'm very touched by this one! (((HUGS))) The title is brilliant, as yours usually are!

Thank you so much. I appreciate it, and where it took you.

Kl you and E. are so fortunate to have such a friendship, a "smile", texting a "sparkle, "tease" and "banter"... and your poem is just wonderful in the expression of this...

which makes it confusing to me as to the music choice which seems so final??!!

anyway, it is a really nice poem KL..

Oh, I just like that song because it attaches to fond memories, and the conversation with E was about his understanding of my relationship. :) those days in between and all...
