A Flash of Silver

A Flash of Silver

A Poem by The Everfree Poet
"

Everyone I've shown it to has found a different meaning. I'd love to hear your interpretations.

"

The flick of a thumb

A silent wish

Sent sailing through the air


A flash of silver

Bright and bold

Into the stony lair


It brushed past hopes

Skimmed empty wants

And grazed by dreams long held


Plinked off regrets

Crashed into lies

And chipped old promises


A flash of silver

Bright and bold

Led on by gravity


And when echoed a

Tiny splash

It didn’t change a thing
