Tobey Hill Poet Free verse

So Too Shall I Remain

In those moments where time slows
Where life pauses, 
and breaths are more than simple motions
When the last light of day, gives way to the curtain of night
How in the darkest of hours, stars seem to shine like a million jewels against the void
What can be said of yesterday?
Found whole and wanting for none
Until the last beat is drummed, and all is put behind
As mountains stand unmoved,
and reeds sway along the softened shores
So too shall I remain....TAH

Emile Pinet July 21, 2018 at 11:38 AM The story like quality brings a friendly feeling to the reader and we can almost see the stars dance in the ebony distance. Your words poetically sum up the feelings that wander through most minds at times of ponder and wonder. Emile.
