I'm at work and there aren't any customers, so I decided to write a poem.


Silence,

Among the myriad voices,

As midnight hour rotates near.

Whispers ...

... of a fevered prospect:

Beats sudden in me ear.



What's unspoken, is not unthought.

A touch to harvest

And barren crops.

Acres treaded,

By casting lots:

Men of Him shall reap apart.

That's good.
How long did it take you to write a poem like that?

Brilliant! I liked the inherent word play about "lots" as in empty stretches of land and as "casting lots."
I'll be looking for more good verse by Nick Adams.

Sincerely
The fly-by-night auntie

Thank you.

I am trying to improve my prose, by writing poetry. There will be more to come.;)
