Ageing Splendor - Dimming Light Poem by Stephen S. Yeandle

Ageing Splendor - Dimming Light

Rating: 5.0


For contented memories

Je ne sais quoi...
the privileged nights...
Sequestered kleitoris -
the little hill...
lies beneath a now gray field...
the Rosetta-stone of her long life...
Once awash in secreted desires...
Contains the inscriptions of the men of her life...

Beautifully worded. An ageing woman remembering her past lovers.......no sadness here, just a celebration of life. Love, Fran xx

I pictured an eldery lady sitting in a rocker recalling the memeories.Your writing gives the reader the vision of the words.
