How would a bird feel
Without its flight?
How would a string feel
Without its kite?
How would the day feel
Without its night?
Or the fish without its gill,
Or the boy without his dream,
Or the wheat without its mill,
Or the roof without its beam?
...the dog with no bone,
and the sling with no stone?
...the up with no down,
and the king with no crown?
Or a top with no spin,
Or a sheet with no bed,
Or a girl with no grin,
Or a thought never said?

How would the old feel
without the new,
and how would the sky feel
without its blue?
Exactly as I feel
without you.

Wow, GYs, that's mighty powerful stuff. What a read! Thanks for then enlightenment.

In such a beautiful flowing way,you have expressed the loss that is felt when one is left without something or someone that is loved that leaves the reader thinking of losses of the past. Well done!

Thank you, Tootsie Doodle!
