words
echo with the ghosts
of almost wholly-lost
worlds
but for them
nothing remains
at all—nothing
words hold
though only airily
the fragile bones
of yesterday
loose as breath
but holding yet
and tightening

You made these simple words so powerful 🙂

Beautiful! I wish poetry was my thing. I’ve loved the lyrical side of poetry since I was very young. Too bad my appreciation does not lend to the writing. Thanks so much for stopping by my blog, and enjoyed my post. Look forward to seeing you again soon, doors always open at Jean’s Writing.
