thread-diving

people are our real legacy; 
one day sure, entire poems 
shall have been forgotten, 
while remains a phrase or 
a feeling drawn from wells 

deeper than memory can reach, 
or device can retrieve much like 

thread-diving as we scamper for 
posts buried by traffic and flood posters… 

follow, subscribe, or friend buttons 
can only do so much 

so we hang on to what we have 
and hold dear, today saving 
each precious moment 
if bookmarked sentiments are promises 
all will be well -we’ll boldly breathe again

This one of the TIMELIEST

This one of the TIMELIEST Poems I have ever read here, and it presents a very shrewd and observant view of what I believe s a universal situation.  Only a real Poet could have written this; no wannabe could measure up!


Starward-Led [in Chrismation, Januarius]
