These Library of Congress poems were only published in audio form. I am seriously considering publishing a short book of the poetry of my youth (If I have enough to make a book), and would like your feedback.


Poem Artwork

Summer hid a fearful soul

And what autumn concealed

Didn’t have the heart to show

The season lost brought you to me

And in the race with time

We drifted into the endless flow

Of forgotten seasons

 

Daylight brought promises revealed

And the truths you could never really feel

Deep enough

Like an ocean tide

You took me for the river’s ride

Through forgotten seasons

 

Now what the morning sun embraces

Sheds awareness on familiar places

Gold in flight

Etched across wear faces

Cold and bright

Past forgotten seasons

 

Now, I can’t hold the night forever

We will have to face the light together

And things you won’t remember

Are the things I can’t forget

From the early snow in December

To the spring filled with regret

So, if you can stand to leave me

I can stand to see you go

Now the seasons that pass before me

Seems to pass too slow

And we can’t fill the space

Time left behind

Of the love lost in the afterglow

From forgotten seasons

 

(C) 1979 Broken Windows Terry D. Robertson

Another well written poem by Terry Robertson! It's reminds me of how we feel when we fall in love at that innocent age, maybe get married and go through the many years and all of a sudden that beautiful, innocent of love is not there anymore. This poem tells you how those things can's be recaptured and how the sadness sets in between two people who once loved each other very deeply. He speaks of time that is gone and can't be recaptured, the regrets of life. His poems, at least to me, speak volumns of how life can turn out. Very well written and I hope someday to see these poems in a book. I would title it "Lost Emotions" but I'm not the author.

Terry,

I your visualizations of the seasons. It's got a rather sad overtone as when the seasons pass, "the love lost in the afterglow". Beautiful write.

Very good writing, the way you weaved the visual of the seasons with the people themselves is very well done.
