Aspect

 

Blink at me no longer we are done.

We have been up and down all the way to the end

and now I close the door marked innocence.

For akin to an elusive shadow

shedding shade across the sky,

when time is marked with before and after

perspective shuts out the universe.

About This Poem

About the Author

Region, Country: Western Australia, AUS

Favorite Poets: Favourite poets? So many, so varied. I like particular songs, not necessarily the singer... and the same goes for poetry. I can honestly say though, that Alfred Noyes' The Highwayman was what inspired my love of poetry - my mother began reading it to me when I was still a baby, and it became my favourite bedtime story

Dearest Judy

A very heartfelt read, I love, love it. If only we could change the world and let the lost sheep see the future through our eyes. Alas, we have so many dysfunctional people in the world that makes this impossible. Xena Quote: Science is what you know; philosophy is what you don't know. - Bertrand Russell
