Ghairo Daniels Poet Idyll (Idyl)

SIMPLY YEATS

  

My verse under Yeats’ carved door
             he merrily chuckled at white 
             envelope, sketched butterfly 
said he preferred to receive 
verses this way rather 
than reading them across 
post-modern websites 

                             a languid phantom

He invited me to an idyllic tea
we savoured small
cheese squares, crumbly 
scones watching a squirrel 
chomp a cheerful chestnut 
                          LOST AND FOUND
 
          What word can describe 
              fleeting images, dreams of poets graduated, yet living on ?
           
                           V A C A N T

 ….a vacancy that awaits a letter 
        wandering ethereal 
 a word manifesting ____on old desk 
        a Lover expecting his
Beloved with cherries and hat

                   a shadow across 
                   poetic spaces 
                   Yeats, gone
                   ye  t, HERE

                       ~~~
