To Grasp Red-Rift Of Coat
© 2018 Harold Bo Clapsaddle, a hardball clod posed

The red-rift of dawn
crowns this poets throat
while dancin’ on a smooth lawn
God’s glory be it as I have wrote.

Somehow as the tree limbs shook
it gave no lie to the North or South
for under my hair my eyes did look
at the red-rift that has struck my mouth.

In longer stint will the noon-tide follow
yet employ’d now in ripping blue lace
of a new born sky given lyric of Apollo
the red-rift pounces tribute on my face.

Lest I forget, to clear my throat
so not to miss the boat with this quote:
“To wrestle with new dawns goat take note,
we poet’s do gloat to grasp red-rift of coat”.
