Through the Veil of Time by June Sargent
Time writing prompt entry
Artwork by avmurray at FanArtReview.com

When viewed through the veil of time
the past appears more sublime.
We yearn for halcyon days
replete with old-fashioned ways.

How precious those good times were.
In retrospect we prefer
to idealize old friends -
whom loyally we defend.

Time has a way of blurring
some of the lines assuring
that memories are preserved
in a way that they deserve.


Writing Prompt
Please write a 'POEM' that encompasses 'Time'
For eg... what it means to us and perhaps how we are effected by it.

'Rhymed' poetry only please, consisting of at least 2 stanzas.

I also ask that you refrain from adding any sound effects and such so as to not detract from the written word.

Author Notes
Through a veil imperfections are often filtered out. And that's a good thing.
