A Fragment of Forever

Just a fragment of forever Inseminated in your look, Like a softly spoken picture In a golden scripture book, Where the pages of remembrance Have been written with my pen, Though I know it changes nothing I still gently say Amen. Just a pause between existence And the dreams that still return, Of every way you smiled at me When I just couldn’t learn, Sometimes when one and one make three And poetry turns grey, I search the stars that searched my soul Before I walk away. Just a blank page in a notebook Where life’s poetry cannot reach, Though it cries within the darkness Still it cannot see to teach, All of those intermingled verses Whispered in stanza yesterdays, Even though the sun is shining It is so cold in many ways. The softness of a loving heart Can make forever smile again, And precious words from gentle souls Stay warm within life’s cold and rain, Along our beach sweet poetry Is washed up on life’s golden sands, To explain that really all in all So much life really understands…
