The Earth Was Moving Slower

Rating: 5.0


The earth was moving slower
it wasn't me there
when they said that mother died.
Echoes upon echoes.
Sorrows never end.

Heartfelt sadness, I feel the pain here. Excellent poem Barbara---Melvina

Many laments seem to me, subtly superficial. This piece is just a hair-shy of a lament but somehow deeper and more genuine. Again, excellent work Barbara. -Tailor
