In the Far Reaches

WD November Chapbook Challenge, Day 4. Write an “In the (blank )” poem
In the Far Reaches
There’s currently nine
and a half-hours’ time diff’rence
between her and me.
I use what seems nine
checking the clock to reckon
what time it is, there.

pictured words 
I could feel the weight of the time and space between you.
Thank you for your kind visit and words, Buddah. Our time change increased the gap to 10 1/2 hours, making it feel like she is even further away. Silly, I know …
I just went to your site, and read “This adaptable heart.” I tried to leave this comment, but the site would not let me. 😦
Oh, Buddah … it has been so long since I’ve seen your poetic words and heart. This one touched me deeply. I hope you keep writing, and I hope it is cathartic.
Glad to be back in touch after all these years.
Oh, I love this. When that distance is felt in both time and space…and emotion. Hugs.
Thank you, De. ❤
