    Everything Except

    Everything has been written

    except your view

    Everything has been done

    except what you do

    Everything has been said

    except for what you say

    Everything has been influenced

    except for what you have influenced

    Everything has been opened

    except your key which opens new doors

    Everything has been destroyed

    except for what you shall make anew

    Everything has its turning of tides and seasons

    except for what you will make out of it

    Everything is turning

    except what you make still

    Everything you do

    do for you.

    i enjoyed the poem all the way through except for one stanza and that was the one that included the influenced line. i was hoping that it was more ... unique word play like the rest of the lines it felt out shadowed by the poem as a whole. either way i enjoyed it and it was still a interesting concept. great job

    Thank you for your wonderful insight. This poem was indeed to jog the mind and clear the senses. To be shadowed in this poem was a success in what I was trying to invoke here. To make one think and understand there own conception of the poem. Thank you. Please come agian.

    Poetry is what gets lost in translation.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
