Third Place

Stairway to heaven If tears could build a stairway and memories were a lane  | Poster

I was in a slumber repose, so tired- I wanted to rest: then, a guitar vibrating grows, I love the twanging of my guest; bringing feeling that I repressed ! The tune is a dreamy cajole, an enticement and seduction: the music speaks love to my soul, I sigh for my love's destruction; recall our introduction ! I am in a place misty veiled, hazy, dark, murky and shrouded: I see headstones with etching paled, and names engraved- the stones crowded; oh, why is the sky so clouded ! I smell the fragrant lilacs bloom, one day ... I planted these flowers: he loved so their cluster perfume, I could stand here many hours; oh, weary- and now the showers !
