Read a fantastic new poem every day. The Poem of the Day is the highest rated poem from the previous day on PoetrySoup. We use a special formula to determine the poem. A poem cannot be selected more than once as poem of the day. Also, the poem must have been posted within the past day (or so).
Below is the poem of the day entitled There Was Nobody which was written by poet
John
Fleming.
There was nobody who could come and weep at his graveside.
So we invited the misty mountain, the gusting moorland
And meandering little river where he had sat down and fished;
But, they were all previously engaged. still, we went anyway.
Someone had to lower the coffin...and songs refuse to sing
If there is nobody to listen.
