Description
These words spontaneously came to Jack's head on Wednesday. Jack copied in Rich via e-mail. Rich spontaneously recorded Jack's poem with a Zoom H2 Handy Recorder (same unit Jack has on order). Later that evening, a thunderstorm was making some beautiful sounds in Rich's West Side neighborhood, so he spontaneously recorded the thunder and rain and added it to the poem reading.
Today is Thursday...time to digest Jack's poem. What say you?

Loss
by Jack Miller
Losing what was never mine
Spectral idols tempting me
Fruitless paths and ravaged time
Companions in my misery
Fading hopes refuse decline
Distracted thoughts mocking me
Circle now this body find
A dying dream not to be
Yet ‘neath these ruins’ wasted climb
The quiet recall in memory
Reasserts the truth sublime
Through loss, life found eternally
by Jack Miller
Losing what was never mine
Spectral idols tempting me
Fruitless paths and ravaged time
Companions in my misery
Fading hopes refuse decline
Distracted thoughts mocking me
Circle now this body find
A dying dream not to be
Yet ‘neath these ruins’ wasted climb
The quiet recall in memory
Reasserts the truth sublime
Through loss, life found eternally

from one of mine:
"without the end of what you have known, there is no beginning, no continuance." Thank you both. :)
