My Life's Torch

My Life's  Torch




The torch of my life

Has shown the path

Through the dark unknown

Tunnels of time

As I swiftly move across

The passage of eternity

Towards unknown horizons

And 

Deserts of life

In search of oases

And

Avoiding mirages,

I seed another sort of evolution

This carries my imprint

As an engineered blue print,

In the annals of time

Towards the far never ending

Remote horizon,

This move beyond

My impressionable imagination,

As I seed the foundation

Of a newer generation

Ere I leave

And my soul cools to be

An animation of a once lived one

For by then I shall have ceased to exist

Leaving upon the shoulders

Of a changed,

Time

Environment

And

Circumstance,

As an indelible mark

Of what they all,

As well as you all,

You all,

You all

Will call me

This is another very special write Loved

Again i think it needs a small amount of help from a pro, as i am convinced it will be another like "Your Loving Eyes" As i do not feel sure to help i will be back to see if you have had other feed back from those who can help better than i with Great love shirley harrison

This is so good

I love where you take us with this beautiful write Loved. There's just the one thing that can be a little confusing. At the beginning, your title clashes with the poem. Perhaps delete it or put some extra spacing between the title and the poem. ...Just a suggestion. Xena Quote: Science is what you know; philosophy is what you don't know. - Bertrand Russell
