Steadfast for M'lady Emma

Poem in triplets & tetrameter http:// blog.myspace.com/poeticpiers

 

Steadfast.

 

The piper at the gates of dawn.

Though seldom seen by human eyes.

Salutes the new day being born.

 

He never fails in his duty.

 The piper at the gates of dawn.

Although we hear his melody

 

upon the morning breezes borne.

Almost impossible to see.

The piper at the gates of dawn.

 

Rarely seen but often heard.

The piper at the gates of dawn,

though we assume he is a bird.

 

The piper at the gates of dawn.

Still does his duty faithfully.

Sings his song to greet each morn.

 

Is he a bird? He might well be.

The piper at the gates of dawn,

 to us remains a mystery.

 

His duty is to greet the morn

If you rise early you may see

The piper at the gates of dawn.

that’s good….
Only those who have ears can hear this piper…
Because we can not see him….
Love it…..
