Shattered Dreams
Crumbly candles are so stormy,
so ferocious, and so wounding.
The catastrophic , lilliputian fire
is fed with the silent raven.
A weary, yearning butterfly
is embellished with an unwavering,
undying forbearance.
And a ruined sunset bows
to impregnable ,serene
forests.
A glimmer of hope frequently
ignites a source of an unselfish
peony.
A symphony of whispers
cuts to pieces an enduring
hyacinth.
Shards of the sun may cause
unwelcome Erinyes.
Weaving the past failures into
a rapturous, flowery rill may
stare at a lasting bluebird.
Sometimes the shimmer of grace
waters an enthusiastic
mood.
And drops of tears like
bloody brooks
occasionally pour into
a pure, celestial bliss.
Ephemeral, harsh words
like feathery zephyrs
engulf a heterogeneous
daybreak.
Unflagging whispers from the depths
of a wounded sunshine
embrace the everlasting rose.
In the secret chambers of the heart
will bloom unyielding truth
like an endless Spring.
