Charles Tiffin Clegg Poems

Snap Cap Success' or '32 Ounces From Heaven'

Oh how I miss that old sound from the can
It's a snap. shhh, that smell and bubbles abound
...

She seemed so far away, yet here
Her love, her warmth, was there, yet here
Here with me she made the world alive, renewed
She gave birth in my heart, the babies name is Hope
...

Death worth mourning happened
The light and joy are gone
The clouds are dark and threatening
For hearts a cold, wet day
...

Lovely Loretta's full of love
Everyone she hugs knows this
Everyone is lifted up
Lovely Loretta's full of love
...

Living on the edge of life
The study of experiences
Leaves little left to see
The surface and the depth is gone
...

Perception is poetry
Without words attached
Perception is painting
Without the added frame
...

The worms take it in one end
then let it out the back
Birds are very much the same
and so are snakes and rats
...

The Naturalist

It's 5 AM and quiet, everyones asleep
It's summer and its time for me to go play on the beach
...

Hard Bony Box

The hard and bony box is old
epiphyses all closed
...

Art

Art is great, aesthetic
It's beauty in our minds
...
