John's original poems
<< April 2010 | poems index | clock poem | June 2010 >>MARRIAGE OF THE SUN KING(I bought him two grandfather clocks) (May 2010)Oh great and yellow globe,with heat
so fierce,so bright,remember this day,
for you marry the moon to give her light.
A golden chariot will be drawn by seven fiery horses,whose nostrils flare with power,
whose mighty hoofs,crash fearfully down,shaking the very sky with awesome might,
and you brave Sun King,shall guide them proudly
on your solar flight.
And in the distant dark of the mysterious night,You shall see her,reflecting your brilliance,heightened by her own quiet beauty,
a rare and perfect pearl,tinged with blue,
set in a velvet expanse,waiting,excited,
for you.
For one brief moment,you will leave your chariot to come together.
A majestic flash will fill the sky,and you
will be transported away on gossamer wings.
She will become whole and full,a shiny
jewel fulfilled with light,to smile upon
you with love at night.
Oh great and yellow globe,with heat so fierce,
so bright,remember this day,for you marry the moon,to give her light.
Grandfather clocks is me!
