as the conversation floats its
string dangling to the ground
and we grab-a-hold of the string.
in between the words
as they fall like rain
to the ground.
we whistle the tune
the wind chimes play
as we grab the words before they hit
the ground
and shatter
throwing letters like shards
lost in the grass
we cannot recreate.
so we scamble
seeking not to miss a word
but we do.
so between the conversation
lies nothing to be understood.

Sometimes the conversation starts easily, other times it ends right from the start.
Words do not connect, they do not reach the heart. Then, you better say nothing.
Great memories! Your boys look identical! My girls don’t look alike at all.
the twins are identical, but they look very different to me now. I think that as a parent we see the differences that others miss. Twins are unique aren’t they?
Indeed, twins are unique. I won’t say that it is difficult to give birth to them! 🙂 I’ll say it’s beautiful and also difficult to raise twins!
it was a different experience raising twins I agree! ours would literally run in opposite directions!

Great pictures of the twins.
thanks -these are my two all time favorite pictures of them!
Lovely photos of the twins..
thanks Pam – they were really cute when they were small!
Sleeping together, face-to-face, it must be the favourite. It shows their closeness.
They always seem a little calmer when they are sleeping.
sleeping kids are a joy. they don’t demand anything!
Being in their own world, calmly sleeping is an emotional experience to parents. It’s a memorable experience and a loving one at that.
that is really very apt and true
it does and it is. I love both pictures. They live in twin world often!
Such a loving and peaceful photo of the twins.
they were so cute while sleeping!
I know exactly what you mean.
but they were mobile, agile and hostile when they were awake!
Beautiful song. The conversation depends on what kind of interlocutor we have. It’s hard to “blackmail” a conversation.
yes that is so very true – it depends on many moving pieces!
I didn’t realize you had twins. I do also. They look to be identical from the photo?
they are identical mirror twins!
It’s funny, I would really love it hanging in my home. It is just a “moment” that can not be ignored. It draws you into their world for just a moment.
it is true and you are welcome to print it!
The eyed heart recognizes the words that come with the soul.
but can we catch them before they shatter?
It is possible to if the empathy that carries out the task, coz it’s very pro-active.
i wonder about that – it feels like they are too brittle.
Suppose empathy understands something even before words are launched.
we hope and dream that right, but sometimes people shut off empathy.
How sad that people can’t keep empathy throughout their life.
Well, yeah… that’s the problem…
my grandfather always taught me pay it forward. If you do it that way, when you well is try someone else will come along with a water tanker!
Your grandfather successfully passed on wisdom to you!
i have learned that gray hair is often wisdom. Sometimes young eyes are wisdom to in all cases the listening heart finds the value.
