The Clock

My latest poem celebrates my Howard Miller wall clock purchased many years ago. (See photo below.) Howard Miller has produced many beautiful timepieces. My clock is modest when compared to the company’s grandfather clocks; it is lovely nevertheless.

My poem “The Clock” was a long time coming, but I am satisfied with the result. Do read it on my Web site.

Unfortunately, Howard Miller is going out of business. Apparently, a weak housing market has resulted in reduced sales. President Trump’s tariffs also contributed to the company’s demise. Howard Miller will not be the last company killed by our out-of-control president.
