Poem of the day
Who burst into tears at St Patrick's parade When cheering and laughing were high all around where unsupporting crowd felt scary and dumb and the soul was as empty as hollowWho stood there staring with unwilling eyes escapeless of space and emotions, no one to hold on to not one single person coldcovered shoulders unheld and not wantedWho did she see, what caused the action What made the beer be useless and foreign and cheering and laughter absent and queerI should have been braver and rushed, an aider to hold her and tell her all will be fine, no bloke is worth it or other lies as a friend would do in a matter like this. But cowarding feet stood like concrete on ground unmovable motionless traitors of heartInstead I moved on and found attentive arms embracing the view of sadness away and cuddling oblivion to my heart as a grace of comfort, but not for her.
Lotta
Wow you are an empath for sure Lotta, not many people in a crowd see or notice this. I would have noticed her too, but probably would have done the same thing and left her to her sorrow. The world can be a cruel place.

Well done as always Lotta. The photo, the poem and even the title. I’m afraid I may have to “borrow” that title as it has left images running about in my head… 😉
