WHERE HAS ALL THE TIME GONE?

by Gary Jurechka   Jan 28, 2006


Where does the March wind go
when it runs out of breath?
How do the leaves of the tree know
which colours to wear for their autumn death?

Where will we go
after we finish this life on earth?
Are we living fast or dying slow
from the moment of our birth?

Sometimes I really don't know,
is it always darkest before the dawn?
Sometimes I really don't know,
tell me, where has all the time gone?

November 11, 1990 or 1992(?)

    Wow, wow!!! It is so deep and truly fantastic, very meaningful topic, I am impressed. I love every line, so unique and you really wrote it incredibly. First stanza and first two lines in the last one are totally breathtaking. You created some special tone in this one. And you added very powerful rhythm to this piece with all amazing questions. You choose great words for this one. You should be proud on it! I add this poem in to my favorites, wow, once again.
