Nothing To Her World Always Turning Poem by Robert Rorabeck

Nothing To Her World Always Turning

Rating: 5.0


What is the girl I always think of doing-
I bet she does as she always does, so far sunny
From my glooming:
And I have won prizes today, and shaken
Hands with the really long haired contestants-
I have brought warm soup to the poor, and then
I have taken it away, because I figured I was
Hungry myself:
I have thought of words like spoiled beef and who
To feed it to but the sick muse-
In this world where it is impossible to close a thing
Because it is always so busy revolving,
The nursery of epitaphs and uncooked attempts;
I would just like to find her once and lie down beneath
Her frilly stems and sigh, and say almost nothing-
Because nothing I could say would be worth such an
Experience- All the wealth in a dropp of her shade,
And it would not be pornography to watch her
Breastfeeding;
Oh, but the things I seem to say just sort of happen,
And mean nothing to her world that is always turning.

A stunningly romantic poem Robert! This line is priceless 'All the wealth in a dropp of her shade, ' This line is a stunner too, 'I have thought of words like spoiled beef and who To feed it to but the sick muse- ' It is a crazy life, but we can stop the merry go round, distilled in poetry, the moment is captured forever. To still the mind enough to escape is tricky, but not impossible to learn Smiling at you Tai
