Last Reflection

Kurt Philip Behm

Marking time in present tense

 old memories left to rust

 

The past a distant reverie

 its truth beyond my trust

 

Looking straight into the sun

 my eyes reopen wide

 

A last reflection staring back

 —remembrance so divine

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2018)

    Kurt,

    A beautiful reflection! It sounds like a prayer recited before going to sleep!

    It came to me in the middle of the night—so yes!

    Thanks Laura
