Kelly Deschler Poet Rhyme

Stay

Golden moments, their precious hues,
Tarnish and fade into the blues...
Nothing gold can stay, they say.
Why, must these things pass away?
Was happiness not meant to see?
What a wonderful world that would be;
Of flowers that should not wilt,
With the family that was built.
If I could, I would have my way...
And, everything gold would stay.






(Inspired by Robert Frost's poem, 'Nothing Gold Can Stay')

Joe Maverick March 19, 2023 at 1:15 AM It does nit stay Kelly.' For it is ahead of us Awaiting in the eternal embrace of the Father.' I use that descriptive (as I beleive it denotes) Power rather than gender. ' and a mindset more Decsisive than (man or woman can assimlate) Or aspire to.' So in light of this breakdown I See no benefit in altering Gods descriptive from The mascline..Its the closest we can get to A true likeness.' Kelly Deschler April 10, 2023 at 7:06 AM Maybe all of those things we lose in life will be there, just waiting for us, after life :)
