Hour 8, "Olde Towne..."

2023 Poetry Marathon, Hour 8

Hour 8

“Olde Towne…”

 

Whispers shared and visions

of wonders… walls and spaces

adorned, all aglimmer with sight’s worth view.

Windows leak dreams made real

and pause-you-in-your-tracks favors

of times hauntingly past.

 

Themes of could’ves, would’ves, mights, and

even wannabes - caress minds and eyes,

held conscious by themes expressed

while smiles - leak from inside.

 

Foods of choice to try palates’ tastes,

Galleries reflecting sheens and whims,

brush strokes holding each visitor’s wish.

 

Art by the block - each a differing view

of life and its touch - rhyme, reason,

and depth.

 

I’ve wandered this world.

Paused, dreamt, and wished

and returned just to …touch life,

yet once again.
