AROUND
THE CORNER
Some
mankind built this wall
stone
upon stone higher
and
farther around the corner
now
draped in vines
seeking
root between cracks
widening
by winter freeze
spring
thaw every-expanding
sycamore
roots pushing
this wall
into forest assimilation
forgotten
by some mankind
around the corner gone.
BIOGRAPHY: Diane Webster's challenge as a poet is to remain open to poetry ideas in everyday opportunities as well as those moments of epiphany. Then to allow her imagination to evolve that idea into a poem. Diane's work has appeared in “Philadelphia Poets,” “The Hurricane Review,” “Illya's Honey” and other literary magazines.
