Aged Mirrors (91) Poem by Raquel Angel Nagler

Aged Mirrors (91)

Rating: 5.0


The garden of shadows.
We harvest the tears
Of the tree that we were:
The deep fruit.


Small hours.
Even our gaze has shrunk.
We measure the sea
By a wave. By a ripple.


Little by little
Inside us: the patience of water.
We realize we can't hasten
The waves we're made of.

Another little gem of a poem. Top marks again.
