Star on my Nose

by Maple Tree   Nov 24, 2012


The pit of your eyes
are dark as night,
lost in the venom
of hydro-chemo,
the only way to
reach you,
is to stick a
gold star on
my nose,
wait for you
to come back,
giggling at the
sight-
reality is, that
you're
married to
a woman who
never gives up
trying to make
you smile,
even when
you feel
like
dying

    I can totally picture this whole scene in my head as I was reading... its full of fun and laughter and made me giggle, yet leaves me feeling a bit sad and teary eyed as well... even with all that your dear husband is going through, and how it affects you as well, the love the two of you share is precious... you are both so lucky to have each other! This is a treasure of a write Andrea...

    Andrea, this not only made me smile, it made tear up because I just felt everything in your words, it is these poems that you also effortlessly pen, the dedication to James, the love and the commitment that you have is just amazing.
    He is a very lucky man although I know you'll say you are a very lucky lady too...

    Nothing much else I can think of to say, this is one of those poems that doesn't need delving into because it's all there in front of me

    :) Hugs you xx

    Also and although not intended, I saw a bunny rabbit in the shape, :) cute

    the love is felt in the words and also it did put a smile in face by just imagining this someone smiling.
