Time

A rainbow
Creating a bridge
From yesterday to tomorrow.
Engagement of memory
And dreams yet to be dreamed.
A spectral flash in time
Sending a post:
The storm is over.

In the distance,
A tree struck by lightning
Offers a bony branch in homage,
Longing for a simpler time
Of symmetry and youth,
Yet polished and stately
In imperfection.

The volume of the past
Fades to naught
As promises of the future
Dart amidst the spectrum of color.
