Continued from last week… Part One HERE
I wondered how I could be rid of her nagging I exhale, pretend to listen There was a change in the air As though something had opened up The break in the path we were walking looked dangerous Somehow, she made it across Had I missed my chance to nudge her over the edge? No, I still needed her mind to find the legendary pot of gold I shake myself, hoping to rid myself of the bad thoughts I had no choice but follow her lead Going home having failed, was not an option Listening to her going over the clues I remembered the walks we went on when we first met each other She had great style in those days I watch as she lights the fire for the night Wondering if we were chasing rainbows I fell asleep watching the old fort throw shadows across the land Hoping the search for the end would come soon… ©AnitaDawes2022
