Patrick J. McCormack Poems

Stripped bare of past Autumnal glory
the fruit trees stand
with the cold of Winters season visited upon them
...

Georges Head -Kilkee

Natures sculpted craggy ediface
by time and weather worn
...

Three shades of valour
Bright, Brighter, Brightest
Five rings entwined
emblem of strength
...

Exit success enter pain
Athletica Queen dethroned
Great heart, proud lady
Olympian dream postponed
...

In the early morning mystic spring light
bird shadows flit between branches.
Different shades, different sizes
different songs, different voices.
...

The Best Poem Of Patrick J. McCormack

The Garden In Winter.

Stripped bare of past Autumnal glory
the fruit trees stand
with the cold of Winters season visited upon them

Migrant birds from far away
no longer gather to eat their fill
and sing among fully plumed branches

Just a single ragged robin dishevelled from rain and wind
now reigns alone in this his silent domain
as the garden lies wrapped in Winters sleep.

My favorite line: 'and sing among fully plumed branches' A pleasant read. No chopped lines. The poet's pain shivers here. Nicely done.
