Last line as first line

We Write Poetry pops up with interesting prompts. Recently, they suggested we take a powerful (or just any) last line from an old poem we have written, and use it to start up a new one. I accidentally came by this particular one, and thought it might as well be a nice opening line.

Both are in English. Here is the new one:

—

Beyond my reason

Yesterday

and days roll by so tenderly

–

Beyond my memory

remain

the falling tears of

harmony

–

Beyond the feel

of passing years

they flutter pinching at my ears

and laughing gravely

–

Beyond my reason

and then again

beyond

the thunderstorm of home
