Robert Lindley Poet Rhyme

Owls Looking Into the Dark

Owls Looking Into The Dark


Sleepy Dreams - owls looking into the dark
 sights imagined but can never touch
Glory and truth both, so brutally stark
 images of great future Hope and such
Dances flowing in thoughts this mind relays
 blood drying on a loose, tumbling rock
Desires the sad Soul fears and betrays
 ship calmly resting at a favorite dock

Night gifts such sweet, brilliant views
A life wearing her gift of golden shoes!

Viv Wigley June 28, 2015 at 3:49 AM Good verse, and gets better with each reading. And that last line sets it off beautifully with a 'ping!'. Regards, Viv
