When you have eliminated the impossible
whatever remains
however improbable
must be the truth
Improbable may be hard
to accept
but all else being equal
the truth remains
Digging ever deeper
past what cannot ever be
to find what might be
these are the remains
These remains however
hard to believe
if not impossible and what really is
must be the truth
If you have stayed with me on this National Poetry Month 30 poems for 30 days journey I appreciate it. Some of you may have known my theme and others may have guessed it by now. If not, it was quotes from all the various incarnations of Sherlock Holmes. It worked out rather well and I will leave you with one last Holmes quote: “Education never ends Watson. it is a series of lessons with the greatest for the last.”
