John's original poems
<< February 2002 | poems index | clock poem | April 2002 >>PARTING(I could not bear to leave my grandfather/longcase/tallcase clocks) (March 2002)We lit the match, the flame glowed,
flickered, and slowly died, like the light in my life,
the light which once burned so brightly,
would no longer cast shadows on the walls of eternity.
And again I am left to wander alone, to
scale pyramids of pain with a bruised and bewildered heart,
to picture your face, now merely a memorial to nights of sweet
harmony and to console myself only with the hope that my gentle
creator will take pity on and comfort my aching soul.
