strike a balance between friendship

we are positioned for direct and often indirect impacts,
even if most of the times we miss—
at least we can say

I thought I had lost my marbles. You seem to have found them. Wonderful photo and poem, Sylvia.

Ha! These are actually my childhood marbles. I passed them down to my kids and then repossessed them when they grew too old (no such thing, but that’s just me) for them. I am in possession of the marbles literally although admittedly not in possession figuratively, so I won’t be of any help there, I’m afraid. 🙂 Thank you for always being so encouraging Timothy.

This is truly lovely, Sylvia. That is life. Sometimes all the marbles are on one side, sometimes half and half… balance does not mean always equal.

Ah, I am pleased to hear that you played marbles in your youth, Sylvia. I spent many an hour with my shooter, trying to increase my collection. I may have worn out my thumb. Grin. As for marbles, they come in numerous sizes and even more colors, but they all roll. Maybe there is another analogy here…
