Not a Trace

Even the most familiar surroundings were unrecognized A most fathomless affair; the search for yesterday The Old Library and playground were also gone The Chinaberry tree, a landmark, was gone A most strange emotion hovered over me, And every trace of the homesite was gone 100722PSCtest, Bite Size.

Natural or man-made, such changes especially if done dangerously, hurt. Congratulations!

Indeed. Changes touch all of us. In many ways, change is an 'equal opportunity employer'. Thanks, Christuraj.

Such a strange thing to see the effects of time. Familiar things become alien. Interestingly our poems are parallels. Yours about your home and mine about self.
