The Collection Of Oneself Poem by sharon wildey

The Collection Of Oneself

Rating: 4.3


In the end times
when the self is scattered over the years
left in the care of other people
and forgotten occasions
It is timely to
consider
the collection of oneself
The bits
from the largest horrors
to the tiniest secret pleasures
Gathering them gently, each one,
and placing them on the shelf of history
in their place
to look at everyday
and wonder
at Life
once again.
