Time Fools You

time fools you

when there are
limited tomorrows
yesterdays become 
most important
back when time
filled the horizon
with possibilities
and you could stretch
to fill the world.

One does not teach poetry. Oh you can teach forms and punctuation but true poetry is born in the soul. You either have it or not. You have it.

Hi Timothy thank you. I think reading poetry can not help but be both feeling and reading. I think reading comes first to introduce the poem feeling intermixes. That's my thought.
