Many Times More Than Twice
MANY times more than twice have I seen
the ghosts of family, friends and then
some whose faces that I did not know.
Quaintly, with ethereal elegance they are
silky touch, feathered-breath and opal eye'd
outside of the tick-tock of Father Time.
It is most inappropriate to ask of them
to state their business or intended pleasure
;extend your politeness over scorn I say
