Colors of Poetry by Joe CramerIn shadows we see the colors of poetry,
This, in our palpable existence
That is viewed so distinctly.
How can words be so true, so fine
And yet leave such an abstraction?
When in shadows this life slowly turns
The leaves of probability
While time slows, goes into eternity. 03/30/2007 Posted on 03/30/2007 Copyright © 2025 Joe Cramer

Never thought of it that way. Colors of poetry. Good one. makes ya stop and think. I guess in ways, poetry does have it's own colors. |
| Posted by Kathleen Wilson on 03/31/07 at 08:25 AM There's so much beauty here. And subtle nuance. this invites reading and pondering the subtle changes..."into eternity". "Words so true, so fine". |
| Posted by Michelle Angelini on 04/02/07 at 03:13 AM Wonderful introspection Joe. Words have color and so does our life. Attitude determines the color, just as it motivates our mood. I'd love to see this as POTD. You have my vote. ;-)
