A Strange Reflection

I dreamed last night I woke this morning. The time had passed without a warning. A life reborn without a past. A new beginning that just can't last. There seems there's just no rhyme or reason. To this image that has acted with such treason. An enemy, a foe, a friend that I don't know. An apocalyptic sense of things, that leaves a dull, dim glow. I,ll take a chance and place my bet. That a face like this, you've not seen yet. So off I go to face the day. With this brand new life to find my way.

Great rhyming Robert and I really like your poem. Thanks for visiting my Silver Strands Poem. Your words were very meaningful to me. You have no idea how much I miss the silver strands of my father. I am adding you as a fav poet today.

Yes wouldn't it be great to erace the past, all the unnecessary things that couldn't last; they sear the brain and give such pain but thankfully you've taken off like a blast! Great to see you writing again Robert.

Yes, Robert, I 've had blue trees too! I love blue/green and red/gold combos. Let me see if I can find an older poem of yours to see now.

An interesting one and it gives a sense of mystery and strangeness as the title suggests. Good luck in the contest, Robert. I think you caught the vision!!
