Charles Phillips

The modern immortal -
 man of open heart, singer of the stars.
 Professor at the prestigious university.
 Prose stylist as John Steinbeck.
 
In your poems,
 your prosody has melody –
 rhythmic scansion
 as Paderewski’s music.
 
You described us in your poems:
 The New Poland,
 thoughts of Holland
 and the American States.
 
Edward Burne-Jones
 painted what you described
 so did Leon Bonnat, Styka
 and many others.
 
The sculpted words of your prose
 are with us. We are lifting the covers
 of facts and truth in your pages.
 Myrrh to you for prophetic words.
