“BLINK”
By
Anglia Emmendorfer
In
the dark shadows,
Catching
glimpses
Of
all the beautiful things
Life
has prevailed
Held
precious in rose windows
Casted
upon walls shifting
In
the mind.
As
the weakened eyes shut
Will
we have done all
We
could do for our rose windows
To
shut knowing it’s the end?
Have
we completed our mission
Touching
others or impacting
A
stranger’s life to the end
Of
the bend?
Tomorrows
and yesterdays
Come
and go
What
will it take
To
help a life
Complete
a mission
Become
a friend
Before
your rose windows
Shift

"Blink" touched me so much I shared it with the Red Door Poetry club at Caltech in Pasadena Ca. It was very well received and appreciated.
