   A winter’s day
   In a deep and dark December
   I am alone
   Gazing from my window to the streets below
   On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow
   I am a rock
   I am an island
   I’ve built walls
   A fortress deep and mighty
   That none may penetrate
   I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain
   It’s laughter and it’s loving I disdain
   I am a rock
   I am an island
   Don’t talk of love
   Well I’ve heard the word before
   It’s sleeping in my memory
   I won’t disturb the slumber of feelings that have died
   If I never loved I never would have cried
   I am a rock
   I am an island
   I have my books
   And my poetry to protect me
   I am shielded in my armor
   Hiding in my room, safe within my womb
   I touch no one and no one touches me
   I am a rock
   I am an island
   And a rock feels no pain
   And an island never cries

   Gail, I miss you and Terry.
   From one old Westporter to another.
