In Dreams 27 Poem by DM W

In Dreams 27

Rating: 5.0


In dreams, I see us as old men knocking
On heaven's door. But there is no answer,
And we head back along the dust covered
Long, hard road towards cruel purgatory.
We can still remember when we were young:
When the grass was so green and the skies were
So blue, and then we fell deeply in love.
Then we grew old, but sadly not so wise.
For we wasted precious moments in time.
And now all is silent. There's no answer,

Brilliant! Never in a million years would I have thought up the germ of an idea, about knocking on Heaven's door and not receive an answer! A clever and enthralling warning poem Dominic. 10+ and again a poem added to my favourites for a future and enjoyable thought provoking reread. Many thanks and hang in there good sir.
