what am I but its solitary
pilgrim—lost, found, lost again—
on the long journey whose only end
is silence before the burning
of my body, one last moment
of flame, a whiff of smoke
washed clean
and gone with the rain
That is some spectacular poetic writing. Thank you for sharing this piece with us. Joseph. Do you write your own poetry, too?
@prydefoltz, his writing is nothing less than wonderful. To answer your question, I am no poet, but I like to attempt to. I attempt to write poetry, but haven't posted any of my own. I love poetry so I share what I find.
Feel free to check out my work if you ever have the time. I posted my first poem on a lark and glass of rose a few years back and I have been writing a sharing ever since. I think many of us would like to see your work:):):)
