The Magic Of Time

From me to you

My phone is magic,

The time capsule with which,

I message the past.

Every time I send a message from my phone to the other side of the globe, I am sending a message from today to yesterday.

If only I could ask those living in my yesterday to fix my mistakes BEFORE they arrive in my today.

About the Creator

Colleen Millsteed

My first love is poetry — it’s like a desperate need to write, to free up space in my mind, to escape the constant noise in my head. Most of the time the poems write themselves — I’m just the conduit holding the metaphorical pen.

  • I really like this one! Great work!

  • If I message you, I'm messaging the future. If I message Cathy, I'm messaging the past. I love this concept! It's mind bending!
