    Poem Commentary

    message received and still dawning

    Hope

    Broken buildings and shattered glass
    Is this all that belongs to the past?
    No crowds, no clouds
    , just murky gray
    one color, one chance, one day
    Destruction, death, decay
    In the mist of gloom 
    a single flower blooms



    1984

    I found this poem quite enjoyable; it kind of filled me with a kind of deep sadness, very well written Peter

    Short and sweet... there is hope... nothing more to say...

    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.
