In my wallet an image
walks with me – my treasure
is a photograph of sons
that winks when I open up to choose
provisions - when I use
a chocolate or fruit shop for pleasure;
to fill up my centre.
Mostly my little centre’s empty
and somehow, vacant, sad.
A place where photos (but very few)
and maybe you
could enter.
This seems a bittersweet poem. Am enjoying reading you daily words.

I like the bittersweet word - it captures the feeling between 2 extremes! John
