This is a very interesting title for a poem. It reminded me of 'Dear John, how I hate to write...... It is a coward's way out really, but if things are absolutely impossible with no communication, at least it can serve a purpose. You have written it beautifully bringing in the seasons and I loved it all. 10 Karin

Wow; you are so inspiring. Notes for Leaving is a killer title. I love the bit about don't wake me from my dream (which might be wonderful who knows) just to lie to me as you are on your way out of my life forever. Love that a song inspired this gem! ! (smile)
