falling by Gail WolperI lost you
somewhere in the bare face
of the rock of the cliff
below the highest peak of the mountain
so many things learned
so many things explained
each more interesting
than the last
but somewhere in
that rock face
you disappeared and I
pushed and I pushed but
for me it would not
budge

Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 08/14/14 at 12:03 PM Interesting poem Gail. I like how it can be taken either at face value (pardon the pun) or metaphorically. |
