Last
Poem
(for Jim Hazard)
by
Charles Rossiter
Could
this be Jim's last poem
here
in the Calendar?
Oh
Boy Is It Snowing,
a
poem full of energy
with
a touch of humor,
so
like him
complete
with an exclamation point!
And
there are parentheses,
in
fact two parentheses,
or
is that called two pairs of parentheses?
I'm
not sure, and a couple of
Emily
Dickinson-style dashes
in
the final stanza. He often
mentioned
Emily. I like to think
he'd
be glad somebody noticed.
