The visitor




It states the passing of an hour

The complete circumference of the face

Times never ending circle

Goes on within this place.

Like tiny footsteps tick and tock

Is it really just a clock

Or am I dreaming in the chair

And no one else is really here

I dreamt of you and I was whole

A real person not a soul

I’m a ghost you can’t see me

From my body I’ve been set free

No tremor left there’s not a sign

And everything is really fine

I’m in your thoughts and I will stay

Until I’m told to go away

I think your words having everything, great choice and placement, and certainly tick the boxes I have for poems. Well done John and thank you.
