Here is the opening poem to my upcoming novel. As always, appreciate your feedback. I've been out of the world of poetry for many years.


Poem Artwork

We crawl, we fly

We laugh, we cry

We mainly crawl

We live, we die

That’s how life goes by

We walk, then we run

From mending the damage

We have done to

Two hearts that always fight

But his heart was built to stray

His love was a bird in flight

And you only got in the way

These two hearts hidden from sight

Yet, his memory will never go away

So turn around and say hello to

The backside of yesterday

Terry, You said, "I've been out of the world of poetry for many years." You may very well have been but your heart remained. This is a very good poem!

Terry,
A very moving poem and I'm sure a lot of people can relate to it. Their are so many broken hearts in our world and all we can do is move on. The wound will never completely close, it's always slightly open. Life, from where I've been is never a Rose Garden, we run into thorns along the way, so all we can do is cut off the bud, fertilize it with some love for ourself and then wait for even a more beautiful rose to grow.
God Bless,
Linda
