When you are swept into the autumn of your life and time slaps your face around to assess your legacy


Blues and Blowing Wind

colored leaves twirl through the breeze

tears marking years, fall

to the ground crunching brown, all

dead dreams flow into streams

and pulled by time, drown

LFD3 What a beautiful picture you paint and thank you for your comment. My dead dreams only make it to the streams before they drown.

Beautiful. But, rivers flow into the ocean, and ferry your dreams around the world, to live on amongst the mermen and the pearls.
