Poems for Ross - 9. Appendix: the 'lost' Ross Poem
Appendix: the 'lost' Ross Poem
There actually is one more poem dedicated to this boy. It appears in short story In Six Hours. This small verse is about the way Ross initially said hello to me, through a scrap of paper he passed to me on the first day of our algebra class together.
Poem No. 23
See them there,
The countless numbers
An errant code and retelling
Of figures new and old,
And you – you pass me a note:
"Hi," it said. "I'm Ross."
And for me there,
Stymied by numbers
Counting my heartbeats retelling
Of hopes new and old,
And you – you pass me a smile:
"Hi," it said. "I'm yours."
