what was that sound
hearing the voice of an angel
wondering " surely she was
calling me home?"
for my feelings left with the
sound of her sweet voice
and life has suddenly become surreal.
as the ties that bind
have all been cut
there is naught left
but the shadow of my soul.
perhaps tomorrow
will have the answer
to my dilemma.

note' with several of his poems being published in the Japanese on line media
Asahi Shimbun.
Dear Thomas,
ReplyDeleteI feel a certain tension in this poem that makes me think about the meaning of life and where I'm headed and how I will arrive. I especially like the line that includes, "the sound of her sweet voice."
Blessings and thank you,
Michael
