A Story Foretold

Where I am now

Is a story already told

A book that was long ago written

Hidden in universal folds

Peace and despair tell the story

Pages filled with streetlights of the night

Others with glowing orange sunsets

I've never been one to skip to the end

But I have a good idea

This book was written in sun-kissed shadows

And I fear it will carry to the end

Dana this is a great poem. It can be quite the challenge, to write a piece, that works without punctuation in some way. This has to be the best piece I've read that's done this. To be honest, most poems I've read, that completely throw out punctuation, can be a mess in some places. You've written a marvelous piece. Well done.

Well thank you so much, that is very kind :)

I guess, you capture the pastel hues of your very life in words quite well.. even you talk 'bout the world that's being captured/written and rune into the pages. So, needless to say, it's just a story - the story told by legends. Nice imagery.

Thank you, I try :)
