HEROES

Haunted by the vastness of eternity
By unknown beginnings and endings of things beyond our realm
Memories of men of fame and myths
Achilles Hector Odysseus and Nestor.
Forgotten to children of our era
Heroes now of inconsequence
Where are our real heroes in the hallowed halls of fame?
In a lifetime of ours men rise and fall like winter wheat
Time can be transcended
Wheels within wheels of time
Lost in the stars are they beings?
Whispers of names caught in the wind
Surrendering time,page upon page of past experiences.
Remember the times gone past
And their lessons learned.

This poem is utterly unique and exquisite-
Indeed, compared to characters of uncertain
history and brilliant legend, peoples "Hero's"
today are ridiculous!
I think even Homer is a hero- he brought us
the indescribible(Sorry about my spelling today) poems The Iliad and The Odyessy, you could also call them great stories- I
cannot think of a better poet!
