Nothing Changes But Time
by Walter Jones (Age: 63)
copyright 12-28-2002


Age Rating: 10 to 127

 
In the shadows of the evening
with death all around
I see the sun set on the other side of town
like burning embers
in the last of camp fire light
the ghosts of yesterday dance through
out the night
The fighting over hundred years past
sabers still ringing as another soldier breathes his last
and I today’s messenger lift up another soul
and gently carry him to his heavenly home

This makes me wonder on the facts of life. Does anything really change but time? People will kill each other no matter what peacemakers rise and come to power. That is especially emphesized in today's world. I love the tone you end on... something a little more happy to bring a little light on these morbid problems, even though it has a sad tinge to it. It's a happy/sad ending. This poem is really haunting, and the words are echoing around and around in my head. Wonderful piece!

This is a beautiful, Walt. I can't believe I haven't read this before! I love your shorter works like this...the flow and rhyme and imagery youuse is always astounding.

I like the way the poem smoothy blends the bleakness of the past with the hope for the future.

It's sad when those we know and love, leave us. Heaven is their reward so we should not have sorrow for them. Only lonliness in our hearts for them. Thanks, Anthony
