Joseph A Farina

there were moments once

of priceless hours,when

metaphors ruled our cloistered youth

 

time then to count

the rushes of the swamps 

listening to secret voices

for their summer counsel 

 

silenced now,hidden in mists

our days of future,passed 

untrespassed by our present 

waiting,  for our rebirth

at the threshold of twilight

Joseph A Farina
