What a beautiful understated poem that says so much about love and longing and the needs of the heart, without saying so directly. This poem is one of your best, Trudi.

I found many saffron colored hearts of my own this morning, as I walked down to the lake, and I smiled and thought of you. XO

Poetry is a living, breathing entity. Words give poetry her life. Sometimes, what the poem wants the poet to say can be said in a few chosen words. Short and sweet is just as lovely as it all comes from the very same heart.

Thank you, Trudi. ❤️💕😊
