Shadows fade into the past a cool breeze that doesn't last
Sprouted seeds grown to weeds fallen on dry ground recedes
Sun raises crawls and falls images of the past recalls
Days that were warm, those of storm, familiar landscape did transform

Atmosphere in melancholic tones as if time did not want to die...
Thank you Lorenz for the read and comment yes you are so right time does not want to die and only will when the last man dies as well
Excellent, my friend! I relate to how landscapes change while still feeling familiar. The past doesnβt disappear, it just rearranges itself. This captures that quiet disorientation well. Wonderful job on this! πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

Sometimes the Landscape is like People you haven't seen for a few years; you suddenly see how they've Changed when comparing Photographs. A fine Poem.
Thank you so much for the read and comment yes all things change over time even memories.
Shadows slip off the edges of memory, breezes whisper through what used to be green.time-worn energy set in motion
Thank you so much for your read and response Aman it is most appreciated
Indeed, when we look around us we see the transience of nature in plants, humans and animals. Everything goes in a cycle. Shadows fade; the breeze does not last; there is reproduction, new life; the old one fades away.
