Emmanuel George Cefai Poems

Deep
Deep child
The eyes that closed were
Now
...

Somewhere
Somehow
The great line comes in magic
As rabbit from the top-hat
...

With every flight you transfer wisdom high with you
From this side to that side of the cage
The thin wiry bars that hold you
Yet
...

Wisdom
Ah! it calculates!
It shall not leave your body, Bird
For Wisdom knows
...

Word
After
Word
After
...

The stunning seas that
Surround
The capes
The white and distant
...

Since I saw you I loved you
I too am rugged
A rugged man
As you be rugged
...

Seasons come and go
And wheels of Time turn so
That Beauty pants to keep abreast with them.
...

You do not play with the Law.
You administer the Law.
You control the Law.
To your strength make it malleable.
...

Many the Dogs
But most I think
Of dogs of war
And fear
...
