POET’S CORNER

A PAGE IN TIME

Richard William Kalbe


If time were a book
        with pages to turn
I’d flip them back
        to a time I yearn.
To a time in that book
        that once held you
Hair of golden iridescence
        eyes, crystalline blue.
Yet time has allowed
        those pages to turn
From that page in time
        that I still yearn.
Where once the ink
        lay freshly applied
It’s now but parchment
        faded and dried.
