Margaret Gaffney Poems

There's a chilling parallel
Between the twirling leaves
And the times remaining to me.
These foggy, misty mornings.
...

Poetry is amorous,
Slightly contaminous
Pretty preposterous
Stuff.
...

(For Carl) I reach for you.
I am so alone.
The dust of the cosmos swirls about me.
The consciousness of space frightens me.

The Best Poem Of Margaret Gaffney

Autumn

There's a chilling parallel
Between the twirling leaves
And the times remaining to me.
These foggy, misty mornings.
These warm days grown colder
and shorter...
The crispness cannot last,
Soon it will be cold.
No longer will the grass rise,
No longer will the birds sing,
No longer will the sun shine.
Soak in today.
Flood your eyes with color and shape.
Surround yourself with the ecstasy
of joyful feeling.
Tomorrow and forever come as soon as winter.
