Birthday Obsequies by Nobody: 7:32pm On Jan 10, 2010 |
I I heard the dreadful wail Of a heart bereaved I saw the coffin march In requiem procession The path was clad in dust The coffin made its way I spied its deep belly A wonder met my eyes: The interior was dark as hell And the old year stiff and dead. II I heard the ringing note Of a heart pained with joy Unto us a child is born Let the bells chime his birth Intone it from the heights Let the earth ring with glee But hush now and be still The child is being named: “Because she will bring us life Let her be called NEW YEAR” |
