Evening Portrait
Steps snoring on the slipperless carpet
At snail sped a thought brimmed him
His tendons and tensions are thawing wet
Ang glazed eyes graze upon the dim
Evening ekeing out its sunset ending day
In wet seas of memory that washes away
That joy that kindled him by treat of kiss
That joy now folded like skin and put away
Left him fogged with feeling, empty and grey
He is weighted with thoughts of people he missed.
