craters of care
shadow marked attempts
deeply rutted thinking paths
(your footprints alongside mine)
from days of trying again and
our laughter in piles around the room
you are there in all the footsteps
of my mind.

I didn’t think the word love while reading but felt it. The words that came to me were – such joy of being together and the memory of it.
I love your poetry, my pleasure.
