Foretelling Poem by Alexandre Nodopaka

Foretelling



Foretelling

Grandfather says to his 19-year-old grandson,
When I look into your eyes I see my past.

Smart alec grandson replies,
When I look into yours I see the future.

I don't want him to see the future through me
no more than I want to see my past in his future.
