Ralph Sergi Poet Free verse

38 Years 2004

38 years  2004

Obscured by mist, as time went on
when our life was blurred 
we would make a list of negative thoughts
that were vocalized 
by anger, resentment and pain
but we always managed to see a light
through the fog no matter how faint
it would flicker from time to time
then it would become bright
and in our life all was right with the world
I’m happy to be here with you living somewhere different 
and doing something new

Ralph Sergi
