Graveyard of Dreams

Swirling vortex of crimson dream 
              in aeon, sultry thoughts redeem.
dappled shades revelled in flame,
              wild storm dances, enticing  tame.
              
Flower vase breaks,.. bitter perfume,
              timorous wail, dark clouds gloom,
Wrecked in ruins, pieces charred,
         balloons in fragments, dreams marred. 
 raindrops stab, scathe skin hard.
                        Garden shards, a grim graveyard
