Joseph Matose Poet Limerick

Infant Poet

Infant Poet


I heard the sweetest cry: “Jack Ellison!”
Soon after birth of Joe my Cherubim Son
That bestowed bliss and not sorrow-
A symbol for a judicious tomorrow
Evocative of erstwhile Lord Tennyson!	


** With the Wise Poet, Jack Ellison, in mind. (A Limerick)
