"Duet" - from Rhymes Lost to Reason: The poetry of Peter Elyakim Taussig

Duet

Picture
And the days crawled on

Like the wooly clouds that glided low

Past the still green hillside

Gently caressing the damp valley floor,

As a plaintive call of a lone goose

Lost above the grey, was answered

By the lone bell atop the village church,

To Announce, to no one in particular,

The happy news of a live-birth

Of yet another gloomy, glorious

Autumn day.
