Plans

Lorna



Let's drift towards tomorrow

Try to shape it to our will

Hope fate allows

Our little fantasies and foibles

To flourish

While Time sits in our palm

Like a heart

Throbbing and trembling itself

To death

      I beg to differ with my learned friend .. this is better than good .. much better .. the ending of course is to die for ..

      • Lorna

        Please don't die........... thank you.

        Thanks for this intriguing verse Lorna along with the well chosen and telling number A compelling reflection on how time can pass and leave us hopelessly drifting in unfinished plans. This must go into my list of favourite reads.

        • Lorna

          Love when you visit Fay - thank you!

          Doh! I try to drift towards 'tomorrow' but it never gets here. It's 'today' by the time it arrives!
          I can't work it out, with only me 3 brain cells. lol.

          • Lorna

            This is pretty funny - and on only 3 brain cells - I know you are holding out on us and could easily turn all of them on...... I'm laughing........

            Rich, and steadily hopeful. Yet, the pensive thought of the passing of time, creates that ominous tone. This is beautifully written.

            • Lorna

              So happy you liked it.........

            • Accidental Poet

              There's always a smile of hope in tomorrow Lorna. 🌹

              • Lorna

                True.... and it helps that the sun came out!
