The Silent Clambering Of Words Unspoken Poem by Greg Fisk

The Silent Clambering Of Words Unspoken

Rating: 5.0


The silent clambering of words unspoken.
Pressing flesh and bone into the cold.
Promises left broken.
A dire despair embraced by melancholy moments which ebb and flow.
The seeds of happiness left to sow.
Through the tempest lay the dreams incomplete.
The howling wind sings the dirge of her mortal parts.
An empty shell lay bare. A herald to the maternal heir, a sign to right my way.
Now there is nothing but silence, a quiet chasm.
The dream fades...
...Will mine?

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
As I watched over my mother in her final days at the Bower Hospice House in Beckley, West Virginia on 6/29/2012 a huge storm came through the area wreaking havoc, knocking out power and downing trees. I took that time to write this. She passed away on at 3: 00am on 7/06/2012
