sleeping
in the middle of the bed-
absent moon
(Missing him...ten weeks down, two to go...I'm getting weary.)

About Me
- Kristin Riggs
- I have had a passion for the written word, especially poetry, from an early age. I am first and foremost a child of God-a thankful recipient of His grace. I am also a mother, a teacher, a singer,and an overall music lover. I call the beautiful southern United States home, and growing up and raising my family here has shaped who I am in many ways. I believe that life- with its various emotions, experiences, trials, and joys-is a gift from my Heavenly Father. As a poet, I hope that my work expresses this. "My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from Him." -Psalm 62:1 Some of my poetry has been published in the online journals Simply Haiku and Notes from the Gean.
oh! thats a long time...nice poem, Kristin :)
ReplyDeletesleeping in the middle of the bed...something very majestic about it, though the poem talks about loneliness :)

ReplyDeleteA nice one - a weary soul - does he read your written thoughts?
ReplyDeleteThank you all so much. Ashi- yes, he does...we talk about them every night on the phone right now. He doesn't write poetry, but appreciates the fact that I do. He likes them. :)
