Hindsight Poem by Doris Cornago

Hindsight

Rating: 5.0


At dusk, he sees crooked roads
Eyes looking far into the horizon;
A woman did not know his worth
Bolded out of the fold, distraught

Yet when we met, what struck me
Was inner depth and gentleness;
Not a comment out of line, sublime
Subtle words, measured thoughts

Funny that the youth he had lost
In rebounding, all grace abounds;
Added years brought him harmony
Found himself at last, in hindsight

Hindsight

With age, our losses appear to be trophies. Losses could be catastrophic but for friends who brings light and harmony to our lives.
