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 |

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 ================================ Sy, Sy your are the master of metaphor and sultan of symbols in this clever cadenced confess. Now we all know ya got no skeletons in your closet.... dragons maybe...but no old bones. LOL *ww* Poetry is emotion put into measure. |
