Limestone's Whisper
Written: April 12, 2025, for contest Sponsored by: Miranda Hawley
******************
You were not entirely missed
Unwinding under shade of woods
reclining on a playground bench
sagged, sapped, and aged knees
glancing at a spewed limestone
Spotted lying on the ground
limestone was not a mountain
separating you from my character
It's just something on earth
It calls for your attention
We are waiting for sunrise
both at night and daylight
deep down in concept, drawn
security guards at the gate
sitting here, quietly, we wait.
