All That Remains Are Shadows

All That Remains Are Shadows

A Poem by MomzillaNC


photo taken 26 December 2016, by D. Denise Dianaty. 

In these bright sunlit spaces

Shadows dance on the eternal stage
Dreams flow of a green grass age
where joyful hope once dancèd

Hope passed on and left this home
abandoned to haunted memories
Can almost see the children at play
possibilities unfettered

In this place laid bare with time
where sunlight’s blaze glares with clarity
No child plays, no hope is found
All that now remains are shadows.

When ever I pass an abandoned house or farm I feel the nostalgia of something I have never seen but picture what it must have been like when it was full of life.

As do I. But, I also feel the need to get out there and photograph or draw it or paint it!
