Fragile Memories The tentative moon rides an infinite field of frosted stars. A lonely cloud roams the boundless sky. Twilight shadows dance with the echoes of Time to Winter’s tune. This late Autumn world of ‘endless’ hills hangs on the cusp of change. There are so many strange and lovely things that we may never know. In this life of fragile memories, which should not exist the one who forgets or the one forgotten? --- b. e. adams (11/24/2015) |

Beauty of nature surrounds us, we live such "busy" lives, we forget to take notice, and all this become fragile memories. Your question begs for deeper thought, both both sides need their place in our memories |

Sometimes it's a mercy to forget or be forgotten, so I'd answer neither but that's just me. As always, very thought provoking. Maybe be mindful of lines or fragment's you've used in other poems. Thanks Pete |

As I began to read your fine poem Mr. Adams, I quickly hovered when reading of the "tentative moon". "Hovering", because of our own existence being indeed, "tentative", and what that means beyond this physical plane never seems to get past theorizing. It is the direct antithesis of "eternal", which the moon certainly is not. As you say, "there are so many strange and lovely things that we may never know", I would say, "there are so many strange and lovely people I have known". Some of them, like yourself, are here. au revoir mon amie Here's to you and here's to me and should we ever disagree, here's to me! |
