Joseph Petrocelli Poems

An old grandfather clock stood in the hall
In the home of Susan and Bill
Handed down as an heirloom
Passed on through will after will
...

Baby Bob Barnum was born yesterday
After twenty-five hours of labor and pain
But other than that there was nothing much different
Until he said hello at the age of three minutes
...

It began as a walk
To stir the blood
A remedy for cabin fever
Though the air was cold
...
