The Finding Of The Lost Diary Poem by Dónall Dempsey

The Finding Of The Lost Diary

Rating: 5.0


Here I turn
the pages of the past

& “that” January

of the year
before the year

before last

miraculously
appears

as if it
were

present.

I read
the unusually for you

short succinct entry

that’s to the point
repeated over & over

as your calligraphy
dances with the words

“Donall! Donall! I’ll
love you forever! ”

And laugh.

Words.

May I repeat that? 'Donall, Donall, I'll love you forever! ' is a beautiful line, short and sweet!
