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
