This is profound... with few words you have captured one's truly vulnerable self... no armour, no masks, no barriers.... We have so many layers that we put on/use to safeguard ourselves... only a true connection can see through all that. Hope it's a nice day in Spain :)

I need to clean the house too but there is not enough Water... been trying to fix this problem for about three weeks now, the one who is responsible for delivering the water in my area is a VERY VERY nasty one! I talked to him with politeness few times, but some people don't understand but the strong language. so my patience is DONE with him, I spoke with his manager today. He now got to see my ugly face, last year he did the same thing and he got to see the evil side of Ghounwah. He asked for it.
Ghounwah is ranting and sending hugs to Sweet Lisa 💗
How much more true and honest can we be but when we are naked? There has to be a great amount of trust to do that. Such a beautiful honest poem Ms. Lisa. Temp

A good, honest write, Lisa. Totally without posturing or pretence. Beautiful, and quite touching! It has an inherent sadness, as we are left with the feeling that this love drifted away somehow. It is a true blessing when we find someone we feel we can truly trust, and be totally honest with. You say so much in just a few words here! Excellent poem!

As I read this, I take my last sip of coffee, the first cup in the last 2 months. After my dad passed there didn't seem to be a need for caffeine. silly but here we are with this poem: when we are disrobed of false dreams and white lies, bare as only we can be, in their presence we are truly free. This is a wonderful place and moment. If moments can be extended to days and years, such open vulnerability is a blissful existence we (most of us) can only aspire to. I have come close on many occasions, they are gems that my wife and I share and work on to cultivate and keep. Thanks for sharing, LIsa.

I am not sure you are aware or not but I wrote this in 1970 when i was 22 years old... Losing a parent is terrible. My father was 96 when he died..and, he was still smart as a whip... My mother died at 85 ... I miss them both...and think of them so often.
Being true to our selves is really so very important..
Glad you liked my poem...

It was my last sip of the day's coffee, and it being the first cup I've had in a while. Mind must be drifting. Apologies. Wow, 96. My dad was 80. Three major strokes. My mother is 83 and still battling on.

I clicked on this poem because of the title "G". It was interesting because what could G possibly have meant? This poem, so short yet so powerful. Its not everyday we meet someone who we can trust so much to be our true selves, unclothed of the fake personas and lies we make for ourselves. This poem speaks of trust, and love... G means: Gem, Great, glorious — all of which this piece is :) enjoyed this alot!

What an interesting take on my little poem. I wrote this in 1970 even was 20 years old.
It was about a man I was dating at the time...but your take that the G could mean so many things is wonderful.
Thank you,
Lisa, early morning in Spain
Ah, you are in good company here Lisa, some of the better poets have discovered you. I’ll concur with their impressions. Sublime work here.

You do realize that I wrote this in 1970...I was 22 years old.. I have been writing for quite some time, but never ever showed anyone any of my work. Until a couple of months ago when I decided to look into posting my work...And, voila , a whole new adventure happened.. Really loving it.
To say my little G poem is sublime is really quite something.
Thank you for reading and reviewing,
Lisa, getting late her in Spain
Now that speaks volumes. When I was young I found intimacy stripped of All the accoutrements of life to be extremely uncomfortable. It was only with maturity that I learned to live with it
