PICTURE POETRY

Round & Round

In years gone by

Round & round in the color of red orange and blanche Scattered around at the old square in the dark Where are the crowds flickering their sparks Giggling, hugging, swirling one after another

When the clock strikes twelve Melody rise of Auld Lang Syne Times long past… Holding tight or letting go, who knows

Acquaintance of yours Friend of mine

How many times We sit together side by side Waiting for the first beam out of the dark Hope for the best & to those nearby

I’ll always remember your smile Garnish in my darkest hours Like those blanche red and orange globes Brighten up my sky in the snow
