I am a ghost…

I am a ghost…


I don’t remember when I died
or where or how
But I know I used to be alive.
This used to be my life.
I was here.

No one sees me now
or hears me cry.
Life goes on for the living
and sometimes I watch.

It’s like standing close to a carousel
A merry-go-round of life and laughter
Music plays, lights flash,
People I love go spinning past me

I try to jump on, grab as it goes by,
but I have no arms.
So there I stand.
I feel the breeze, hear the fun,
but it is not for me.

Sometimes I float away…

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
