Twilight Beam Comments

In twilight time, our shadows lengthen and we can see more than our eyes can see. The wrinkles on our face are witnesses to our wisdom, gained through walking the length and breadth of life. 'The day is ending with falling maple leaves Being dry and wobbling in evening air. The gloomy sun dips beneath the horizon Cautioning me with a message of my end' - beautiful thoughts, poignant though, that make the readers look back at their lives.

Yes, this poem is truth filled for sure. People tell me all the time that I don't look like I'm 68, they think I am in my 50's - I guess that's a good thing. But when I look into the mirror an old lady is staring back at me. Great poem, Amitava, , can definitely identify with it's essence. Thank you for sharing it, please keep writing here on ph, you have a lot to share with the world. RoseAnn
