Layers
The whispers of time
Sweep along cavernous walls
That speak of old days

Love it, Scott. The title and the image of a canyon make me feel like I've been hearing these whispers for a long while.
Nicely done - time and changes well worded.
This is so beautiful. It feels like wisps of mist to me, as I try to grasp memories and rebuild my life. Gorgeous.
My change is here. Thank you.
Whispers whisper into other ears; somehow, relating two separate entities into loving one another.
Old days distance two ageless lovers; sixteen years apart too far.
Good write.
I love the whispers of time.
I imagine them daring us to change.
haunting image
its sad - reminded me of the past and regrets...just lovely
Thanx to all!
very lovely...the words have a sense of comfort in spite of change
Love it!
beautiful... it is nice to have companion memories..
lovely words...you have crafted it beautifully!
how wonderfully put, I can imagine myself walking along the walls, thinking just this thought
Very nicely done and love the image it evokes in your mind.
Very evocative lines, simple yet reflective. Very nice indeed.
I read this about 10 times. You did not need one more word. 13 words and I feel like an entire era passed through my soul.
Wow, thank you for those words!
