Like A Distant City Poem by Barry Middleton
Like A Distant City
when the sun finally faded
I lit a candle
I had been a watcher
in the last light of day
the cloudless blue sky
turned white in an instant
like the turning of youth
into silver wisdom
there were no clouds
only a pastel afterglow
like a distant city
coming into view at dusk
and I lit a candle
to claim a piece of a star
and then I poured the wine
a toast to pale eternity
