Time
Delicately thin skin belies
strength and durability,
yet gnarls, whorls and scars
bear testament to trials and
adversity endured.
A story hidden in each crevice,
but the narrator's voice softened
to a whisper.
How did it get so late
so soon?


Free verse. Written 1 September 2022.

Third place in "The Daily PoemOpen in new Window. (September 2022)
