Final Pantomime Poem by Barry Middleton

Final Pantomime

Rating: 5.0


the rain tree sets its leaves
so I know that spring is here

and soon the summer heat
brings hope to end my fear

with yellow booms in fall
the tree declares a change

that nothing in the world
assumes to rearrange

too soon the winter comes
the rain tree marks the time

as seed falls to the earth
in the final pantomime
