Image for the poem Out of place of time

Out of place of time

It finally arrived,
and I am greeted  
by the two blue wizards
upon a backdrop of blue mountains,
where they are or go
none truly know.
 
It seems such a shame
to now open it
and spoil it with use,
commit it to the ages;
time has delivered it
time will keep it.
 
Upon looking
I have the strange sense
that although I see two,
there is only one being  
and I have stumbled on a secret
that once may have meant something
but now is only myth and memory.
 
If only I could convey it;
Out of place of time
as I am.

Author's Note
Entry 30 for NaPoWriMo2021.

A Tolkien Calendar I ordered arrived today; 4 months into the year. The first one never arrived due to something in delivery and was returned to the sender. This one will stay for posterity now.

Something in me says the 2 Blue Wizards are 1 connection.

Image is not my own: it is a copy of the cover to the Tolkien Calendar 2021; a cropped version of "The Blue Wizards Journeying East" by Ted Nasmith (https://www.tednasmith.com/tolkien/the-blue-wizards-journeying-east/).
