Sherrell's Poetry Pages

Trying to keep the muse active in my life as I begin drafting new poems and following a small yellow thread.

Assignment - write a poem about 3 am - also write a poem containing only 25 words. I combined them both and here's the resulting poem. Comments apprecited.

1997

It is three days
past the July new moon.
At 3 A.M.,
my Father,
four hours dead,
steps into my room
and says goodbye.
