CLOUDBURST COUNCIL POEM ALAN CASLINE






















PLACE MARKET PLACE AT THE GATHERING

                     from a few hills down
his friends and town seek
  the help he needs
             to overcome chaos
              to arrange
              to initiate
  a song afresh

        a profusion of outlook
welcomes inspiration
               yet working the known
                 means you cannot  listen
  for the new

                     night frost melts
                   wet dew drops hang
in morning air a gentleman
         stands
his cold hut newly thatched
   thus he always begins his day

  yet once he  heard a way out
              music’s objects of inner
   sound flow
   (unknown still elements)

                 unite or separate
                    both to be able
            yet there must be one
at the beginning
  (some difficulty)
                            Alan Casline
