a thin haze
of you drifts by, a vision in a baseball cap.
Your vague image answers a question I don’t know how to ask.
The answer will lull
me enough so that I can sleep tonight.
I can pray for an appearance in my dreams, but I know now
unanswered prayer
is an agony I should spare myself.

Judy, good to see you writing again. I agree that unanswered prayer is a pain one can (try to) spare oneself. But it doesn't stop one from looking for those visions...
Beautiful, sad poem, Judy.
Straight to the heart and the gut, this one, Judy.
Lovely and sad Judy. Good to read your writing again.
