Fleeting

Where does time go transient a fleeting gust of air non retrievable a whirlwind in a mirror fragmented shattered unforgettable memories unforgivable regrets a circular menagerie slow motion rewind replay a vortex of emotions Published in my 24-page photo/anthology ~RANDOM MUSINGS VOL.3~ 2020 Submitted on December 22, 2018 for STANDARD CONTEST NO.150 sponsored by BRIAN STRAND - RANKED 1ST Originally posted on December 18, 2018

As the old saying goes; "like the sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives" Great poem well written and I enjoyed it a LOT!

Nicely done, Line, but I wish you would develop it more-- it's like a tease, an opening to--what?--and by saying this, I mean it as a great compliment.

Thanks, it certainly is a compliment when you don't want a poem to end - most appreciated. Part of me loves the way short poems really invite the reader to fill in the blanks and share in the creative process. The other part of me loves to ramble on about what's in my heart ad nauseum. LOL

Some of the world's greatest minds have ascribed to the belief that all time is happening simultaneously. Your poem reminded me of that, Line. Very nicely penned. Congratulations on your win in Brian's contest, Carolyn
