30 Years Between Letters Poem by Kirby Wright

30 Years Between Letters

Rating: 5.0


Words from an old flame
Sunrise the past

The time of immortality
When the future

Was not reduced
But expansive as ocean

At sunset
Where you embraced

In a green flash
You would never see again

And believed in fire
Beyond the sea of shadows.
