Last Word To Begin

Kurt Philip Behm

My constant companions…

 words reel and recast

 

Like a lady in waiting,

 they clear every path

 

Extending forever,

 to store what I feel

 

My thoughts they intrude,

 my meanings revealed

 

My past they’ve forgiven,

 my future ignored

 

They rest in my prayers,

 hopes and wishes restored

 

I know at the end,

 but one thing will remain

 

A last word to take with me

  —to begin once again

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: July, 2018)

    Kurt,

    Your words are magical!

    Yes, words...meaningful words...
    a past they can forgive and a “future” they can “ignore”...with the present...

    Our words are who we are!
