A closet Held A closet holds the Ides of Parch A wary past still on the march Dated papers years of ream The essence of a life times dream Paper soldiers hold the fort Drilled and trained this life of wrought Sorted like a catalogue Buried deep within its bog The will was left a key of sort To open up this fort of wrought But shines no light to bright the way And much was left in darkest gray The shadows danced a dance Macabre That brought a sigh a cry of sob And sorrow played a tune of awe Gone this friend forevermore I sit in sorrows empathy With hollows note of sympathy |

I think I'm going to open my closet doors, and let my many binders and reams of paper dance a jig... ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Again a very touching write, dear Seymour! When we pile up everything to go through it later oh there are emotions waiting! I can relate. You are an infinite source of wise ponderings. I hope our friends who are gone, are not really gone, not for evermore I mean. There is a possibility to be in touch, I believe. Love, Margherita ![]() |
