In Its Throes Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

In Its Throes



In its throes
The day my mother
Is like to your day

When
Blind your eyes
Closed earth to you

Yet your Spirit fought
And had
The prophet glimpses of Immortality.

We
Hear on this ordinary earth
A planet as of planets
A star as of stars
Of constellations ever-growing
We
Dwindle and evolve
Evolve and dwindle.

We
Shine dim yet we pride
On our brilliance.
