Yesterday
Remorse left us bitter
Skipping stones
Dashing hopes in its hurry
Tomorrow
Can be a new day
Discovering the gold
Of missed words
Remembering
Saying sorry
Not addressing
This lack in communication
As walls
Around us crumble
Tourists lost
Foreign strangers
On vacation
Drunkenly we stumble
Across this British Isle
Trading barbs
Bedrock vows
Diamonds hurled past
The White Cliffs of Dover
Seas of rough
Fast swirling gusts
Toss landing rocks to boulders
Above
Broken trust
Widens eyes
Ups and wakes
Fully sober
Below
Cease to rest
You skipping stones
Grateful in calm
Reposed closure

Congrats on your 100th. I've followed from the beginning and it's always a pleasure to see your name pop up on the list when a new poem drops.

Wow!

My 100th submission!

Just doing some self congratulations after my intentions were to do only 1.

Thank you, sincerely, for all who have taken any amount of your time to have read, commented, critiqued, and supported. Writing is therapy for me and I encourage anyone reading to also put to paper whatever words and stories that are rumbling around in their heads to maybe also share with the world.

THANK YOU!
