empty rooms

...empty picture frames fill my room - like reflections from a mirror - once you turn and walk away.

 

 

the light of a candle - the instant it's blown out - the sound of melting wax, now frozen - left in darkness, awaits the match

 

the forgotten ones - sit on cold hardwood floors - cutting pictures from People magazine - with dull shinny scissors - to fill empty frames.

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
