Classic poem of the day
" Roll on, " said Gilbert to the earth:
" Roll on, " said Byron to the sea:
Accepting natural features thus,
Freely I say " Roll on " to thee.
Time like an ever rolling stream
Bears his most rolling sons away
Bryanite saint, Darwinian sage,
And even Dayton has its day.
Earth changes; sings another bard,
...
Member poem of the day
These are poems about sinking, poems about drowning, poems about loss, and poems about new discoveries we sometimes make while feeling lost...
Sinking
by Michael R. Burch
for Virginia Woolf
Weigh me down with stones…
fill all the pockets of my gown…
I’m going down,
mad as the world
that can’t recover,
to where even mermaids drown.
Door Mouse
by Michael R. Burch
