A Window Of Time 2 Poem by Dave Alan Walker

A Window Of Time 2

Rating: 4.8


I looked
out of the window of time
where I once saw my mothers eyes

To my surprise
there she was again
She put her hand to the glass
She said put your hand to mine

I couldn't understand
how this could be
Then I realised
I was back as a child

She said son
your going to meet someone
She's going to change your life
She's going to have your child
Just like a lily flower
She's going to make you smile

Now as a man
I sometimes look out of the window and smile
I tell my daughter lily
of the time I saw a ghost
that looked just like her nan

your theme is fascinating. I ve read your works as you request..I owe you thanks for reading mine. Each poet writes in his own style I am a die hard formalist. I rarely try to write free style my muse begs me to desist. She says I need the discipline That is imposed by formality
