Story of Time
By Howard F. Stein
Ghost Ranch, NM
Ancient buttes and mesas
tell the story of time,
of muscular buildups
and staccato breakdowns,
ages that measure our lives
by the history of the earth—
fathomless time,
exalted time,
time beyond time
in a story told by stone.
Like this very much ‘Story told in stone’
I’m a sucker for any poem about time. So, thanks for sharing this fine one. HGL
Love the last four lines.
