Passing Time

Your skin like dawn
Mine like musk

One paints the beginning
of a certain end.

The other, the end of a
sure beginning.

    Profound

    Very profound write. Six simple line that speaks so loud and clear. I am the dusk that Dr. Angelou writes about. However I paint my own picture. Very well written poem Dr. Angelou

    Yay! One of my all time favorites. Short, but I love how everything is said in just those six lines.
