The Long Ago

In the long, the long ago.
A creature crawled from 'neath the mire,
And centuries and centuries hence,
You see him in York Minster's spire.

Thank you for your kind response, Linda. I haven't replied or posted anything, let alone read other people's poems, for ages, as I've been in a bad place for some time. I hope to change that. CLIFF

Hello, SKAT. Sorry I did not reply but I've been in a difficult place for the last couple of years. I'm over it now.

CLIFFORD, Stopping by with a nice, sweet Welcome to Poetry Soup. I will get much delight, in reading and in time become familiar with your verse. As for now, I will greet you with the same smile, others passed, when I first join the soup. Wishing you and your poetry the best. I hope you get to meet all the nice poet's around here. Starting with me. SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you wish. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND" Hugs* SKAT"

Thank you, Carol. Like many other people, I guess, over the passing years I have written many poems, and I will post some on here, and I will also comment on the work of others.
