Beautiful poem! and I think the last line is wonderful. I don’t take it to mean that the world is not enough, but rather that our lives are short. I read poetry every morning– and currently from a collection called Coming to Age. I wouldn’t be surprised to find this poem there, though I haven’t yet. Thank you, Sher.

Thank you for listening and commenting. It’s wonderful to know you read poetry each day! Thank you for your positive spin on the last line. The last line struck me somewhat negatively, and I am sure it is because each day I am making an attempt to be satisfied with things just as they are. I mean trying to be content that yes this is enough instead of striving and trying become more and more.

I love this poem and I love the imagery. The world looks so different as the light changes and the trees no longer have leaves. The last line doesn’t hit right for me though – I don’t feel that the world is never enough.LikeLike
