Strange Ponderings

in the realm of yesterday I am now but a ghost a shadow that wandered away yet another forgotten post in the reality of the present I know I'm but an illusion a dream that won't relent my surroundings mere delusion therefore my future must be a story waiting to written by a delusional ghost trapped within an illusion

Yesterday is indeed behind us and depending on the outcome, perhaps a wonderful memory or merely a ghost of the past. Love the "trapped in an illusion" Sometimes it certainly does feel that way. Really nice Christy

A unique perspective! I love reading 'the out of the norm' poetry like this. Well done Christy.

Indeed, yesterday is but a ghost flitting through our memory. We can't do anything about it. The only thing we have any control over is NOW. A fine write my friend. Bravo. Well Done. God Bless, JB

Cleverly written. Love rhyme. In all such I like to read the last word in each sentence from top to bottom as a sentence. Sometimes it make a lot of sense Peace Love and Joy.

Thank you so much for your comment. I didn't think anyone would like this poem. I'm having one of those days where inspiration and creativity are playing hide and seek. Peace Love and Joy to you as well.
