Fragile

Fragile

Moments dissolve
in loneliness,
fragile,
breeze of doubt,
timid
as bone china
of  bygone days.

Strewn  thoughts,
lost in short sentences.
Past lost
and forgotten.
Fragile future,
silent horizon,
silence of sea 
at lee side.

Past days,
fragile as morning dew.
Presence  opens
in the book of silence,
day dreams, 
lost in the setting sun.

Hey, I came to back page of yours and saw your fragile poem again, but slightly different I think. I have done this too, changed poems a little bit from form to form! Nice seeing you tonight. LUv, Andrea
