just this present

Albert's Poetry Caf� challenge - using the following picture for inspiration�write a poem with exactly 10 lines, using all 10 words: gone/ slip / withers/ morning/ crack / art / trap / consume/ flight/ tissue

 

My past left, is gone

A death crack and the yesterday smile isn’t mine

Although, trap inside it is some memories

To consume old places, people, a flight over past dreams

That withers me no more then a tissue picture

As I can’t be that one who had my name

Life is the art of the unfinished

Suddenly as each morning slip trough my fingers

I’m left with now, here, just this present to give you…

It's alright if that past slipped away, my friend, because I already know how that story ended. But the gift of the present "you" that you bring is a marvelous gift indeed. I just can't wait to see how THAT story goes. (smiling real big). I've missed ya, sweetie, and I think about my angel with the blue wings all the time. Luvs ya......Jeri
