I waited and waited for what I considered to be one of my better poems to post here. Here it is.

Remnant
Watch the children, watch their dreams
Watch the progress (or so it seems)
Watch the time, watch the past
Watch the present, make it last
Watch the future, long and distant
Watch these words, so reminiscent
Watch the ocean start to rumble
Watch the earth begin to crumble
Watch the stars in the sunlit sky
Watch me live, watch me die
Watch the night turn into day
Watch the world fade away...


It's short, but it's different from what I normally write. I chose to post it here because I like it a lot, and I only plan on posting one poem (this is it). Enjoy...I hope.

Boo! Only one?! I say BOO!

But, if you were only going to post one, you certainly did well in your choosing. Excellent work, as usual.

Hmmm..This is the finest example of a perfect poem yet. It made me think, but it isn't all,"listen to my philosophy". Perfect.

"It made me think"
Perfect, that's the point. Not only to think about what's there though, but to think outside the box, to see what you want to see. To look at what's not completely there, but at the little shards there are, and to put them together, in any pattern you want.

Thank you both, and sorry CHB. Remember though, it's just a plan, and plans can be changed. We'll see though.
