Divertimento

Divertimento

A Poem by Gerald Parker

What goes from A to B
and itself never turns
 
but turns A into B
and back to A in turns?
 
What brings a divertimento back
as leaves turn to carpet

and trees start to ache
in rain turned grave-side sleet?

What drives us on to B
with our faces turned to A,
 
and why do divertimenti
only distract, and finally dismay?
.

About
There's not much to tell. I read a lot of poetry and I read my own poetry regularly. I hope other people read it and derive as much pleasure out of it as I do. My output is small, about 110 poems as I.. more..
