“Poetry is all that is worth remembering in life.”
— William Hazlitt
A Place To Rest My Mind
The mountainside embraces
This trail that I wander
With serenades of birdsong
In shadows I ponder
…
A Night Of Heartbreak
The haunted shadows of my hallowed love
Stand there lonely in the darkness of night
On each glistening leaf, a soft dew falls
The way my heart did when times were right
…
The Return
The days shadows grew long
The perfect dream was evermore
My tears fell like the softest rain
Returning a soul from its hellish war
…
The Witness
The cold rain on my shoulders
A bizarre evening in store
As I peer in through the curtains
I’m stunned to my core
…
His Battle
He’ll walk into the shadows, one final time
Knowing it now, it’s between himself and mind
This fight undertaking, he didn’t sure pick
Battles ablaze inside, to keep him in check
…
