The beginning was of becomingÂ
The one page of a chapter
That led my soul to poetry
A beginning of escapadeÂ
Escape from the dull world
A colourful world of poems
Stanza by stanzaÂ
We delve deepÂ
From words of ShakespeareÂ
My love speaks throughÂ
A couple of coupletsÂ
My pain speaksÂ
Through sonnets
My curiosity screams throughÂ
The VictoriansÂ
Oh how this world gave meÂ
My most treasured gift
The gift to writeÂ
The gift of beauty in words
My weaponÂ
My graceÂ
Bleeding through my thoughts
Here I send an odeÂ
To my precious giftÂ
This may be the last time here
But not the last stanza
I write in this lifeÂ
An ode to this chapter
An ode to the last pageÂ
An ode to the last timeÂ
Ode to the goodbye.
Ode to the last time.
