~ LIFE THROUGH TIME REFLECTED ~
{truth's interwoven memories}
Time writes no wrinkles endless or sublime
Calm or convulsed, as if it were comprised
Of the idea of eternity, as though it were a child
Born of the naivety that most do despise
Sending it on the long hunt, for learning of life...
Life paints the seasons, spring to winter
Like, building a home with wood that splinters
Like, the minds of men who make 3-D printers
Confusing the child on his hunt through life's filters
Indeed, life writes no wrinkles, but allows for free thinkers...
It is within that freedom where life is projected
Onto the great movie screen of the minds eye reflected
Where memories interwoven with time are perfected
And eventually manifest themselves, as History protected
By ultimate truth and then, most carefully, connected...
Tony Taylor

I really think this is the best poem I have read of yours. It reminds me of the prophetic hypnotic state I go into when I listen to " In My Life " by the Beatles. Bravo my brother! Well done. I know my reviews are usually short and sweet, however this poem deserves a lengthy rant by me. It deserves not only to be nominated as a masterpiece, it should be the number one winner
HOLY CRAP!!... Seriously?...... you think it's my VERY best?!!...... wow, I hadn't considered that as a real possibility...I know I planned to include it in my upcoming book of poetry...... but I guess I hadn't really thought that far ahead!!....THANK YOU GREG!!...... for your 'Way Kind' words..... and your VERY insightful impressions!!..... Lots of Love!!...... Your friend and Ever-admirer!!...... Tony!!.......LOVE & ROCKETS!!   : )

It's one of those that has evolved over several months and TWO rather tedious Edits/re-writes....I find that I tend to leave some time between Edits/re-writes and the original idea on paper for those poems that I THINK may evolve into something special after giving them time to marinade in my thought process for a while!!....Thanx AGAIN girlfriend!!

Favorite Line
I love this line as it describes the Natural world, the aspects that have been some say, prepared for us to survive. A world, where we know with out a doubt, winter is approaching to buy those new tires, or know when there will be the next big flood. How, we have choices since we are quite young, yet are allowed to be “free-thinkers” and to use our creativity that we were born with to spin a tale of hope, pain, love or departure. To be ourselves, in the scheme of things.
Another Favorite Line
The title is perfect!
When I think of the words: Calm or Convulsed, I image all the news reports on television. The fires in Australia, the terrorist on Television, the people who are hungry in the world. We all have a voice, we can use it to promote awareness, hope, our ideologies and our hope to reach more young people, before they get too captured by a strict way of learning and living, to allow our youth the freedom to make mistakes and the freedom to use their minds.
I probably read way more into your poem that was there. But this is how I felt after reading it – peaceful.
Thanks for sharing this poem.
