Life And DebtA Poem by David O Whalen (O Haolin in Celtic)debts unpaid...plans mislaidI feel as one…now
With the grass and trees Part and parcel Of capricious breeze Feel the need to fall Upon my knees And beg…“let me linger A little longer please” I feel a certain sadness Perhaps more sure A certain madness In my humble And bumbling Clumsy. Stumbling Pleas I feel somehow More related (tho’ perhaps A bit belated) To Mother Nature… With her wind-song In the trees I feel the weight Of long due freight The debt of a lifetime Of unpaid fees… Words left unspoken Hearts perhaps broken So now I make my plea Upon my knee In all humility And beg good Naturedly… “If you should be so good If you only would…. let me linger… A little longer... Please” © 2014 David O Whalen (O Haolin in Celtic) |
