So she
dropped from then to now
and landed quite confused
because nothing, nothing, nothing,
conformed to the fit and style
she had been accustomed to.
She searched amongst modern norms,
between the leaves of every tree
and even scrummaged in the dirt
for signs of all she’d known before.
But gone the time of innocence,
the time of love and honesty
and I think the time of grace
simply bowed and walked away.
But the stage, of course, filled up
again
with agendas, ego, selfishness,
and all the evil perpetrated
one against the other.
So lift her up back to the then
where everything fit perfectly
and love and grace and honesty
a known norm for everyone!
