Once there was a timeA Poem by SorenOnce there was a time The sun's shadows shone bright Helios took the blues, the sky to prime Come the gentle womb of night
Maternal caresses filled with love Bursting from each bough new life A hawk metamorphosed into a dove A child's game, transfigured all strife
In our nakedness we were proud Living in Eden's hope with no shame We had no need for a shroud No feeling of gilt or blame
Primal water, eroded frowns to smiles Amity permeated all people We were young and naive to wiles And all dreams were believable
With the weight of falling sand Maturity ripened into a crime What was beautiful fell out of hand Once there was a time © 2023 SorenReviews
