Fifty Is a Moment for Reflection

November 12, 2020

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is being fifty.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com.

A number poem for fifty about the milestone as a time for reflection:

Fifty is a moment for reflection
In which one can look back upon one's past
Feeling both estrangement and affection,
The longing that one finds in recollection,
Yearning ever for what cannot last.
