Genesis in March

A Poem by Leslie Philibert
"

dedicated to all those who take time to read my poetry, my thanks..

"
The first six days;
a cold stage
waiting for snowdrop

orphans;then the rest,
the sky of constant sorrow
breaking thanks to brittle

light.The white bones
devoid of recall, the crust
of cold loam hanging

alone.Travel this way
again,missing on a thrown road.
It waits.

Very beautiful and evocative, I really enjoyed the choice of leaving the final word to the following stanza, it gives an interesting flow to the rhythm. The final verse really caught my attention: short, straight-forward, quite interestingly it revolves around a verb of stasis, to wait, while the last verb was quite the opposite, a verb of movement, to travel. Great job.
