I feel like a POME,
Stuck on this rock,
Waiting to come home,
Watching the clock.
And when the time comes,
I travel with glee.
The jet engine thrums,
As I fly o’er the sea.
Then we are together,
The whole world right.
It should be forever,
This heavenly light.
But before we know it,
The hands have turned.
It really is shit,
We should have learned
Time has passed,
In the blink of an eye.
We should have asked
The gods in the sky
To stop the passage,
The passage of time,
When we’re together,
And life is sublime.
Dedicated to my version of heaven, Ionia.
Great poem. But I look forward to the day you don’t have to write ones like this

Hi Julian ~ I don’t know why you two can’t be together but am hoping this is temporary. Lovely poem and nice to see your writings again.

Thanks a lot, John. I agree. These apart times are not welcome at all. At least I should be there for Christmas this year.

You are always productive. You produce the greatest feelings of love and desire in me. A passionate yearning.
