"If you are going through Hell, keep going." -Winston Churchill


A little red star

Flutters down

As we pick up the remains of yesterday.

Piece by piece

Some broken, others intact

We clean up our destruction

Leaving only

A little red star.


The author's comments:

This poem is about getting older, and doing things for the last time as you get ready to leave a stage of your life. It's about the bittersweetness of letting go and getting ready for new things.
