    Back to the arms of the Creator

    Back to the arms of the Creator

     

    Taronis-2004

     

    Autumn winds, a cool sun, as the summer strength bids its last

    I see the sun lower each day, darkness spreads over the light

    Dreams of days, sweet and warm, days that have rapidly past

    Glimmers on dark-speckled waters of youth that could not endure

    I see those days, long-ago, pleasant, yet now somehow obscured

    Tainted in the worry of darkness beckoning, the glow’s final task

    The greens to ambers and wind-swept reds, time lacking, one last look

    As the brightness passes over long-away hills, a single shaft of daylight

    Casts long shadows toward the east, as twilight falls, as summer passes

    Beckoned homeward my worn-out soul, back to the arms of the Creator

    Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, in the end we shall be "back to the arms of the Creator". Very nice piece. I love it. cheers!

    Too reflectively and introspectively sublime to be somewhat prosaic. Its essence becomes obscured in prose. I suggest that ta transform these profound sentences into a poetic mode. Ta, let's see you rework this profound and beautifully crafted piece for better appeal to our senses.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
