Blackout Poem excerpt from Charlotte's Web by E.B. White

#poetry

Let’s not talk for a while just lie here and watch

It’s lovely Twilight settles a feeling of peace

Swallows pass on silent wings animals sniff the familiar hear the trill of the tree toad the occasional sounds comfort

he loved life loved to be a part of the world

The thought of death came

“I don’t want to die.” “Of course you don’t.”

“I love it here. I love everything.” “Of course you do. We all do.”
