The Table Set & Letting Go

By Basia Palka

THE TABLE SET

a cupful of love
a plateful of emotions
and a jugful of time

from PAINTING WITH POETRY my prayer

LETTING GO

first anger, then
a sort of sadness sets in
followed by much weeping,
when the eyes have dried out
that it’s difficult to open or close eyelids
true pain,
beyond pain – numbness
there you stay
till you let go,
only then can you begin
to love the change
