A moment

A dot at the end of the line..
start a new page..
put a dot after a letter..
flip a couple of pages..
and put another dot..
then reverse and ponder..
maybe you resume where you stopped..
and then release another dot..
and maybe you swing back and forth..
and wonder..
what if I stay with what I have got..
surrender..
i beg you not..
flip a few more pages..
and remember..
where you stopped..
or drop the book altogether..
and come to me..
I have lit the fire ..
and washed the pot..
i will make your tea..
i will serve it hot..
we will sit apart..
in silence..


One thought on “A moment”

  1. Nice poem. I never thought too much about the meaning of dots. A single dot fully stops a sentence. A dot and a comma separate a list more than a single comma, but less than a dot; a dot and a dot on top interrupt a sentence in order to continue with something to be finished with a dot and a line on top! Three dots in a line …
    You got the point!
