A Milestone

Dismal stars out Contrite to feelings The moon glows brightly. The storm is inside. Tears form as I cry. Regret, I don’t. Have I done wrong? Here and now stand Weeping for hope. Willow tree Sways in wind Vision rapt Hope gales. Godspeed! Life |_______________________| Penned on January 02, 2015!
