mirage

mirage

A Poem by annie lee

 


looking back through the years


is like looking at distant mountains in the desert.


heat ripples your vision


like a filter


softening the rough edges


hiding the sharp blades of regret.

we think things were easier then....but maybe they weren't---retrospect is always kinder.
