A Poem For E V Poem by Doris Cornago

A Poem For E V



There was a good friend I liked a lot
He likes to chat but not much
Unlike his son does, yet
He's full of charm
Unhurried
Slow
Steps
Looking
Backward
As he walked
Away, letting me
Catch a glimpse of
His face, showing me
The detail of bushy brows
Brilliant mirrors of two eyes
Affable wide snout for a device
Large puffy lips that could scowl
Or open like a cave taking a mouthful
It is never about a lack of time but attention
For what's important, we all end up doing a lot

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
This is an exercise on memory and living life fully. It's not that there is nothing in our life that's important but we have lost control of time, throwing a lot of it away by failing to notice details in our haste to catch up with time. Slow down to the rhythm of slow breathing and time is forced to slow down with you.
