Anselmo Boles Poet Monorhyme

A Dreamer Gazed In Agelessness

A Dreamer Gazed In Agelessness




                       In the midst of chaos love relinquished its reign

                       A plethora of weakened senses pounding within

                       Like clouds we drifted apart abandoning heaven

                       Remorsefully begged that an amnesty be given.




                       If Eden is illusion is there another I can behold?

                       Visions blindsided by this apathetic frigid world.


                        Do missed chances lose spark unlike pure gold?

                        May not buy their way out of loneliness tenfold.

                
                        Who can say for certain if one's luck takes hold?

                        Fate insists that the answer must never be told.




                        Doubt incites desperation as she began to weep

                        To ameliorate her grief, I ascend a canyon steep

                        A dreamer gazed in agelessness counting sheep

                        Dazed as hearts tenderly reunites in their sleep!

Sotto Poet December 11, 2022 at 8:59 AM Anselmo, you did a fantastic job with this Monoku; it really gave me excellent comfort. A myriad of sensations that have been dulled is beating within. The solution cannot be revealed, as it is forbidden by destiny. I am able to take deep breaths of the tranquility that your description of the scene exudes. Anselmo Boles December 12, 2022 at 7:10 AM Once again, I'm very grateful for your kind and inspiring remarks Lasaad, It's satisfying to know that you sincerely relate to this poem. Happy Holidays!...ab
