how fragile we are

by Maria Terezia Ferencz

And we
we washed ashore
like so many sea shells
empty forlorn

And we
we finally saw
like so many blind men
how fragile we are

Talk about being on the edge of the abyss, another fine write lady.

Maria, I am a person of the Sea...so, naturally... I love this metaphorical imagery I love it.....crumbled what once was whole

...while looking for one of your wonderful pomes, i saw this one. a thought is a bud, and we watched it bloom in these words...one of those 'thank you' for writing this pomes.

Love the comparisons...analogy here. Pretty dang good for just a thought...more an epiphany in my book.
