The Classic Roundabout

The Classic Roundabout

A Poem by Richard Mueller
"

Life -- I've barely cast a dent in aging, but suppose I were much older.

"
And into my deathbed, carve me roses of white 
Dress me in the dark of the night, but bathe me in the sun's light 
Tell them of how I stood so proud as my shore was ripped up 
The tides of life turned and I was frail, weak, not ready for the 
roundabout.
