John's original poems
<< July 2005 | poems index | clock poem | September 2005 >>AND SO SAY ALL OF US !(the grandfather/longcase/tallcase clocks) (August 2005)We started there, the two of them,
he never came back since.
I wondered whether they would go?
She hated pork with mince.
We introduced each other then,
though he had still not gone.
She thought that I would try again,
but they just wandered on.
Although he could not tell from us,
that I would not to her.
We always played the same because,
It was not even there.
She was at times not able then,
for things that were not said.
He ducked beneath the table when,
You wish we'd stayed in bed.
They always tried to see that I,
could never turn her round.
Below his elbows was the sky,
above our heads the ground.
And though it could not think that we,
were always moving still,
He said that she might not to me,
as if perhaps I will!
If they were not impressed upon,
from whom we had not seen.
She could have been and went and gone,
and not known what I mean.
And if to prove that there was not,
the utmost of a chance.
The warm was turned from slow to hot,
while who was not to dance?
For so to them was inside out,
towards,behind and square.
The outer sideways was perplexed.
in front just did not care.
And thus it will not matter then,
never more this part.
'twill read a little better when,
you go back to the start.
