Three of my very very best
have flown the nest. I kept
them pressed like dried rose
petels between the pages
of a prayer
but my old jazz boys
don't want to languish
like sleeping ghosts,
folded pale, worn gloves
in a silk box
They want to strut
the snap of their
living years, shake
their words , jump
their readers' imagination
back to then.
