“Did you miss me, ” she wrote inquisitively? <br /> <br /> “When we dance in the dark and the music stops suddenly Do we miss it? ” he wrote. <br />“Most certainly our bodies cease to sway.” <br /> <br />“When our kite soars above, and the wind ceases completely <br />Do we miss it? ” he wrote. <br />“Surely our kite plummets downward.” <br /> <br />“When a cold rain extinguishes our fire’s warmth thoroughly <br />Do we miss it? ” he wrote. <br />“Clearly familiar warmth gives way to nature’s chill”. <br /> <br />“Do I miss you? ” he reflects. “I miss me! <br />For your return is my return, <br />and I wait for you to bring me to myself.”<br /><br />Dennis Lambert<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/letters-from-afar/
