Christy Stover Poet Rhyme

Strange Ponderings

in the realm of yesterday
I am now but a ghost
a shadow that wandered away
yet another forgotten post
      in the reality of the present
      I know I'm but an illusion
      a dream that won't relent
      my surroundings mere delusion
therefore my future must be
a story waiting to written
by a delusional ghost
trapped within an illusion

Chris Green November 15, 2016 at 7:18 AM Yesterday is indeed behind us and depending on the outcome, perhaps a wonderful memory or merely a ghost of the past. Love the "trapped in an illusion" Sometimes it certainly does feel that way. Really nice Christy

White Wolf November 15, 2016 at 1:04 AM A unique perspective! I love reading 'the out of the norm' poetry like this. Well done Christy.

Judy Ball November 15, 2016 at 12:36 AM Indeed, yesterday is but a ghost flitting through our memory. We can't do anything about it. The only thing we have any control over is NOW. A fine write my friend. Bravo. Well Done. God Bless, JB

Cheryl Hoffman November 14, 2016 at 9:05 PM Your clever introspective poem reminds me how truly fleeting time is Christy! Very nice write!:)

John Hardison November 14, 2016 at 8:26 PM Cleverly written. Love rhyme. In all such I like to read the last word in each sentence from top to bottom as a sentence. Sometimes it make a lot of sense Peace Love and Joy. Christy Stover November 14, 2016 at 8:55 PM Thank you so much for your comment. I didn't think anyone would like this poem. I'm having one of those days where inspiration and creativity are playing hide and seek. Peace Love and Joy to you as well.
