Forever

Forever



Galaxies reaching for infinity
Grains of sand that cannot be counted
Drops in the sea of immortality
Paths through the endless forest
Time a concept without foundation
Wonder at love that outlasts all.

You have set my mind reeling with this one Barbara. I am often involved in discussions about time, a concept (without foundation) that I like to keep as simple as possible. I feel this inspirational write might spawn one of my philosophical blogs. Wonderful poem. Love, Nigel

I think this is absolutely beautiful. I always admire anyone who can do free verse. It is not a easy form, but you've handled it beautifully. I can learn a lot from you!
