Driftwood Poem by Paul Reed

Driftwood



Tangled driftwood
Lies exhausted on the shore,
Like strands of forgotten thoughts
From minds that have gone before;

Picked-over ruins
Heaped and spent,
Used and discarded
Jagged and bent;

Orphans of the river
Beached, vulnerable and prone
Like orphans of life
Left to start alone.
