Topic: Speaking of Peggy | |
---|---|
Humanly recollected
your ashes of our thoughts tracing a line there where the irrevocable cuts cuts off your memory traces laced with thin threads of concern stitching events,places,impressions gathering all we know cupped in trembling hands treasured like the future never could be Frictionless time teaches nothing nothingness teaches everything there in the severed silence your responses representing that unique channel sculpted through the living spaces touching people, faces, glimpses now stand deserted, a citadel of otherness pressed into the relief of history's endurance carved stone that means flesh and breath power and purpose Ripples into the inanimate offerings on the sacrificial altar these scattered words this trembling flame |

A good one to "think" about, realize the message...I especially liked. "treasured like the future never could be" and " your responses representing that unique channel"...
Welcome Sequa! |

Thank you for the welcome, leigh, and appreciating the poem.
It's about a friend of mine who visited India, got ill and died there, very sad but inspiring one of my best poems, I think. Interesting how the negative can so inspire the creative and positive. |

Yes, it is interesting and wonderful!...The way in which life's negative experiences inspire positive results is exactly why I write poetry, read poetry, love poetry...So glad you are here!... |

Interesting how the negative can so inspire the creative and positive. I wondered who Peggy was and here is the answer. Your poem is a little too deep for me, nevertheless, I enjoyed reading it. Thanks for sharing. |
