Those moments in the past and some that will be in the future: remember, discard or place carefully in a book?

Question

‘MADE GLORIOUS SUMMER’
(Compass Gardens 18/3/13)

Yesterday, it seems,
Flowers woke
From their beds
Listening to youngsters
Live for today.
But tomorrow,
Gathering darkness
On spades
Gardeners will twist, turn
Over the soil,
Scattering light on petals
Yet to be sown.
Then at half-term
Children return;
School uniforms discarded
Like unwanted skins,
Roots tapping their toes
Forgetting instantly,
In a flash of light,
This one brief moment
Turning and twisting,
Each to the sun, a day
Any garden, this garden,
Should always remember.

Answer 1

There's way more depth to this than originally expected with its light presentation and short lines.

Read it a few more times to be able to appreciate it for what it really is.

Yesterday, today, tomorrow...remembering each day.

Well done.

It is so good to see you post a poem here. Not sure you even remember me, but I still have you as a contact.



Your poem hit the mark in thoughts I had just today as my daughter is home sick from school, now a teen, yesterday it seems she was a toddler, and I was still dunking a basketball. The fleeting moments of life, even as I turn the corner of the bell curve of a life-span, I embrace to the hilt, and thank _________ for memories, for those along with dreams can make life beautiful.



Thanks for the imagery, words, and a thoughtful piece
