Poem -

a spell, a sparrow + the colour purple

a purple spell she gave me
upon my dying day
said she...take this here spell with
you
and death my friend will fail but...

I had no wish to linger, for some
of us need dead
said I...see that there dead
sparrow
please place it by His head
for life is only worth a jot
when joy is given and begot
and happen that dead sparrow's
song
will spread more joy if He lives
long
whilst I am dark of soul you see
your purple spells are not for me
and I thank you from my dying
head, but some of us just hanker
dead

Being Me

Ohhhhh.... Marion!Β  This poem is beautifully constructed. It dances in the mind. Your words are heartfelt andΒ  brilliant. I'm sorry, of course, that you feel this way but ...oh.... what a poem. It has that old fashioned feel, in the way that it completely measures up to the work of the old masters x
