SUNSET

Over my life in theatrical dreams,

Periods in time, moments sublime,

Passing events and blessings of gifts;

over a lifetime of thoughts to lift.

Memories forgotten?

Or, just put to rest?

Stars fall for wishers,

with their desperate requests.

There is something powerful and meaningful about time. As we dream along in riddles and reality, we become aware that memories cannot be forgotten. "Sunset" sets theatrical dreams aflame and makes us know that time itself will outlive the monuments of stone. Thank you, Valerie, for letting us into your "Sunset" in time.

The element of time is so strongly expressed in this beautifully written poem...I would like to write about time...it's so great,confusing ,and hard to write about a theme... Ali

There is a wonderfully artistic & abstract quality to your writing, which opens it to a variety of interpretations. This is a "thinking man's" piece & I truly enjoyed its metaphoric quality. Amy
