My Dear Darling series
Day 63
My Dear Darling,
How is our little one? I imagine your body is starting to show off the new life growing within. I try to conjure up in my mind a picture of you, with that tiny bump. Alas, nothing will compare to feeling it in person, watching your eyes speak volumes of happiness and me trying to understand what it will be like in there for our baby. Warm? Safe? I want to be there too. I want to be warm and safe in your embrace instead of keeping watch through the dark, constantly wary.
As I write this, a beautiful red maple leaf dances in the air, slowly drifts down and falls on this paper like a blessing, as if saying you are right here with me. Believing that you are already listening to my words, my pain… It is such a small but very much needed positive thought. Surprisingly, it is changing my view of this maple tree also.
When we first arrived here, it had just rained. This old, lone tree stood tall and wide, with branches too many to count twisted every which way. The flaming red leaves hung from the branches and twigs everywhere, making a vibrant canopy. The ground below was wet and mushy, the dark soil made darker by the decaying fallen leaves. That made the ground look like it was soaked in blood, as if the tree sucks it out of the soil, providing sustenance and color to its leaves. The setting sun cast its last light upon the cold water droplets dripping down, the remnants of a mighty rain. As we watched, those droplets reflected the red that was everywhere around them, showing themselves as blood dripping from the tips of those leaves. Upon first look, it was a giant gory demon with its wild flowing hair, waiting there to welcome us, the rustle of the leaves telling us our end was near.
But now with this single leaf in my hand, I feel silly. Perhaps the many battles have made me paranoid. But in that moment, the fear is real. With any luck, this tree is not a demon, but a fiery angel that will send me back to my wife. Hope rises once again.
Yours,
Soldier in love

That moment, when in a long and tiring day, you suddenly see something very simple yet so beautiful, you want to paint, transfer that sight to paper and store it forever… But frustrated because you haven’t the time… End up being satisfied with a picture taken with your mobile and walk away with a smile because you know that view already took away half your weariness just by existing within your sight.
In a modern-day fairy tale
Portraits beside the dinner plate
“The One?!” was the query
Trolled through my mind very
“Mayhap” for suns few
To meet on the middle ground
Clueless witness a hundred
To love blooming unaware
Smiles, jitters and butterflies
Tingling and tickling
With the beat of the march
Sealed life for and into
The story how I lost mine heart
A modern-day fairy tale.
Did it start with a long summer day?
On waters blue and wide,
A voyage long with none alongside
But gulls that often cry.
Billowed sails catch no more, nay
Nor the shimmering waters’ ride
All too long, an eternal wait
A sailor far from his bay.
But then came the day, with it the dame
To deck the deck to life,
Fill the air with sounds of mirth
A new significance for eternal came
For there ought to be no sorrow nor strife
But joyous new life’s birth.
Gaining your acquaintance was a surprise
Nobody knew we would grow fond easily
So many days I watched you in secret
Wondering if you are the one for me.
I held back, scared and lost,
Convinced myself to be content
With the blinding smiles and mischievous moments.
Living a lie, you said, entertaining the world
You and I both, love, said I in mind.
To hold on to our dreams and passions,
Life’s authenticity long lost.
I wanted to get it back
By holding your hand for real.
But life as cruel as it is,
It pushed us together in work.
Just a job, just a few months
I said over and over to myself
They had us enjoy our time together
All the little red roses of lovers
“Don’t cherish it, Don’t want it”
My mantra that kept me sane.
Bit by bit I weakened and broke,
With every smile, every surprise.
The day of separation came but
Now I want to ask you
To hold me close and kiss me
What do I do? Heaven help me!
