    Poem Commentary

    great to be an object

    Canal, the end?

    Like a wizened old man's finger my water does bend

    I feel hidden; surrounded by buildings and trees

    I may be murky; a vision of muddied water 

    But I was once business life’s blood, an aorta

    Sometimes I feel ignored by you in a changing world

    My skin, occasionally massaged by gentle breeze

    Then outrageous joy as a canal boat ploughs up my spine

    I may be old and dreamy; in my forgotten state

    But I still dream of developers before it's too late

    Life hasn't pass me by Marie, I get a truck load tipped on my driveway every day. I have two boys and have a wife. Last August was our silver wedding. I am pleased and proud you enjoy my poetry. Your friend, Phil

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

    Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
