Ode to Saturday Morning

Ode to Saturday Morning

Nothing lasts forever,

Not the sun or moon or stars,

And love may last a thousand years,

And never once be ours.

No thing lasts forever. Quite different than nothing. The latter is only a possibility of an end we cannot know. Until that end occurs, we can't lay claim to knowing but diddly-squad about it.

It's a good one Steven. The last line is a killer.

Did love ever last a thousand years?

lol. Does the same principle apply to

And war may last a thousand years and never once be ours?

Nice to see you posting here Steve.

Although I didn't understand how the title fit in this, the rest of it was very nice.

Truly beautiful. Aside from being my favorite active short story writer on LitNet, you might just become my favorite poet, too.

I wrote it on Saturday morning, the poem first, and it didn't have a title! I'll have to think up a title that's more fitting!

Thank you all for commenting, I don't usually do poetry.

Regardless of the title I found it lucid and profound.
