All over but the shouting
John Clare Stokes
The time for answers to questions
Has gone
Father could have told us
The name of the dog
Where the home stood
Who gave him the Parker
Or the LCSmith double barrels
What specific gravity
Caused the syrup
To candy
What key opened this lock
How do you make the
Blueberries grow
Somethings are beyond
The google search
And mother
Even before her long term
Memory became fuzzy
catching up
With the short term
And the blank pages
Of her long kept dairy
Questions I should have asked
Instead of just sitting
There in silence
Watching wheel of fortune spin.
