POETRY FRIDAY


Next week we will begin what I hope will be a new era of peace. 
It seems a time for a poem of peace.

VARIATIONS ON AN OLD RHYME
John Mole

This is the blackbird that wakes with a song.

This is the sun
That shines for the blackbird that wakes with a song.

This is the earth
That welcomes the sun
That shines for the blackbird that wakes with a song.

This is the snow that fell through the night
That covers the earth
That welcomes the sun
That shines for the blackbird that wakes with a song.

Read the rest of the poem here.

VARIATIONS ON AN OLD RHYME
John Mole

This is the earth
This is the earth
That welcomes the sun.
This is the earth
That welcomes the sun
That shines for the blackbird that wakes with a song.
This is the snow
That covers the earth
That welcomes the sun
That shines for the the blackbird that wakes with a song.
