A Low “Ha”


O, river Derchi,
O, wider Seine,
A river
Has to love vistas,
Sigh a narrow
Farewell.

  1. Point of curiosity: You say this--let's call it a poem--years ago, more than 30. You thought the same thing then. No doubt you've forgotten that (shocking!). I thought of it sometime last week out of the blue, regretted that I'd lost it. Then, I opened a book to prepare some text I was writing and out came a scrap of paper this this scribbled on it. Oh, blessed recover! I've since had my hard drive crash. Lost hundreds of texts, some of even less quality than this.

  2. Are you saying this poem was written in college days, and I saw it and made the same comment then? Remarkably consistent. I should run for president, but I don't want to be called a goatherd, or anything that rhymes with it.
