    My Engravings

    Give me some time ,

    To collect my engravings,

    Keep the paper rubbings;


    Paper burns and ink fades,

    They’ll pristinely stay,

    To remind and create more impressions;


    No need to look back,

    I got what I came for,

    There’s nothing to look back on;


    They’re etched so deep,

    Time’s wear won’t matter,

    So enjoy what I leave behind;

     

    All new colors on better grade pad,

    A different beauty,

    For the ever curious world;


    Just give some time,

    To collect my engravings,

    The real ones will always be mine.

    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
