Memories of progress

Ronald Tirino 1962 (NYC)

Memories of progress

From narrow lives
We come and go
Replied with tender hands
In its handling
 
Living through that which persist
And has survived anew
The loving things we try to save
Inherited habitats of our world
Through Memories
of gardens shadows
Earth becomes our home again
 
Transcend successions of its shedding's
Shaped its way in day
Memories of progress
Pipe dreaming landmarks
Sacred archaic monuments of our age
Decay in winds of time
