Poetry Time
Forever Changed
© 2014 Dave and Lillian Brummet excerpted from the book Rhythm & Rhyme
Poet Lillian Brummet explains: "This poem was written in Dec. ’11 after a strange dream - once I woke, scrambling for a pen, I began struggling to catch the essence of the dream in this brief poem. ...I chose this poem today because this is our wedding anniversary, and I thought it would be a great way to celebrate our 32 years together so far. ...Love you, Dave!"
Young lad shuffles on cobblestone path
Skipping stones across fields of gold
Eyes focused on the sky
Where scenes of wondrous dreams
Float past like thunderclouds
While carriages clatter by.
…just by chance their eyes met
And he knew – she was the one
He – in torn pants
Sun sweat soaked field clothes
She – sparkled like sun on water
The moment passed before the eye could blink
Yet his life – forever changed.
And she – couldn’t breathe.
