Permanent #Poetry ….by Jane Aguiar
Three
college friends
lost under the weight
of work
came together in an
unknowable way.
So meeting
each other
was incredible
and unfamiliar
but
their love
for each other
was boundless
and unexplainable.
All three
were invited
for the carnival parade
as judges.
After the meeting,
some memories
of college
came to light.
There was a lot of laughter
and some gossip.
They had learned
the hard lessons
of life
and were relieved
to learn them.
They knew
that everything
was fleeting
and that nothing was permanent.

The words to lead your piece for this week are
When the shoe pinches
Pain
and
discomfort
is
unknowable
to
others,
and
unexplainable
too
as
the
wearer
only
knows
where the shoe pinches
