Poetic Asides
Wednesday Poetry Prompts: 415 – write an I Believe You poem
Moving On
I believe that you can
not drive my car,
choose my direction,
determine my destination
I will plot my own course
follow my own star
and when I look in
my rearview mirror
I will see you standing
in the receding past

I love this Candy – independent and going your own way – especially the lines:
‘I will see you standing
in the receding past’!
