Poetry: Independence

by David Foley

Created on: December 12, 2008   Last Updated: March 06, 2009

THE CHANGING WINDS OF TIME

The Wind is blowing up a Storm

A small Conflagration is beginning Form

Like the changing of the Tide

There will be nothing left to Hide

Only the Theft of Time through Riddles and Rhymes

Could one forestall the Fiddler's Crimes

Gollum's puzzling questions

Give play for challenging suggestions

Elves, Dwarfs, and Hobbits

And the telling of Gollum's Tale

Is where Shadows of Truth Lie

As the Sun pales the Sky

Though, Ti's not the passing of Time

That is the bottom Line but It's

Consort, the Journey, It's-self that Is

Of Import.

Follow your Heart

Right from the Start.

Do not Deviate from the Gate, Mate.

For this will give You,

Self-reliance For

Your Defiance.
