Endsong

Endsong

A Poem by Neville

Endsong

 

Hope

is where all wishes wait

 

In vaults too deep to contemplate

while time

 

Although preoccupied

declines to pause or hesitate

 

Yet seals

for eternity

 

The rich man

and the paupers fate …

Superb and profound Neville. I like the way you have staggered each thought. Works well. Yes, we are shackled to time -the great deceiver! Our common fate.
I feel winter coming on - usually it offers its own delights but we're all bit nervous.
It'll be fine!
Cheers,
Alan

Hope is a blue butterfly with flimsy wings trying her best to lift us as time flies by from the inevitable, no one will escape from rich or poor.

Sobering poetry.

how very kind of you my friend .. many thanks indeed ..
Rich man or poor, theres no exemption to anyone as far as the 10 foot deep vault under the earth goes. It awaits everyone as eagerly and seals them all shut for an eternity. Hope is a dream. Death is the only reality.
