Nevermore Nevermore


My caller is a friend who repeats tragic news
An ingrained bad habit delivering calamities

In between reports I counter with good news
That she and I had not seen terrible events

To visit us for a long time adding cheerfully
That it is not a kind thing to repeat bad news

Unless the listener is connected to the event
Or entitled to learn about it for good reason

Total quiet by the caller allows my declaring
That from today I shall not repeat bad items

Since they are mongered gossip I pledge to
Keep Poe's promise - Nevermore Nevermore


2007 F William Broome

I like the couplet structure of this piece, Bill.. I have found I don't write in couplets often enough these days myself.

Love this ataely and crazy bird. They are like teens when they run in a pack throughout a corn field. This bird is a genuis with its brain and never more underestimate the Raven.
Love,
