After Guardian’s Sibelius by John Greening

  After  Guardian’s   Sibelius by John Greening



A beginning, a new beginning

 with the advent  of  January,

circling above my roof, my head

wan with care, a crane, brooding


in its world hitting new and novel;

a reminder to my family, what year it was;

perhaps a nullification of all that is evil

a mystery terrific  veering round me ;


Behind me a strange with look of prediction

may be  ghost or embodiment of Time,

Running on its own,  beyond  our daring ventures

Time still is clairvoyant, you cannot chain it ;

 

For a sufferer, balanced, past and present

Tapping on equal terms at all tides

Silence  stands knocking impartial

Only message endure till the best of times!
