Of All That Verse Has Given Me Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

Of all that verse has given me
There is the sweetness of
The bitter.

The sad of life that turned
To desperate.

The eyes bent downwards to
The earth
As the red dusk departed
From earth's field
And twilight waters fast
Transformed to a deep black.

The tragedy is done!

To perish
In the lone night
As practicable
I go to the cemetery
Direct
This night
To meet the new inhabitants
And peers.

Desperation is bitter but
Resignation sweet.

Desperation looks down
Resignation humbly
Raises again from the fall
Its eyes to the skies.

Desperation is confusion
In brain at most.

Resignation starts
Restoring ideas of clarity
A clear eyed dawn
After the hacking night.

Desperation hacks wild at
Serenity.

Resignation starts humbly
Serenity.

I know it.

I know it,
All, my Monsignor,
You have to learnt it.
