Sonnet On Time Unfinished Poem by M.L. Squier

Sonnet On Time Unfinished



In the simple silence of honeyed Time
When the clock’s rounded seconds go to sleep,
Heaven’s ancient treasures begin to shine
Upon the simple silence that we keep.
Then the pendulum’s ticking seconds wake
Up sleeping-dreaming lovers under sheets
As dark and closed curtains begin to shake & open
To let in the morning sunshine
Of
Death!
