Panorama

In the mist shrouding mystically 
the journey’s penultimate mile
at the fringe of the fading pasture 
of the un-blossomed future obscure
in the twilight hour transient 
the sunset swansong resonates
for the forlorn life silently spent
and becoming silhouetted still
against the shrinking skyline of lost luster
seeing the last sparkle of the dying day. 

The twirling threads of turmoil 
entwined in seamless motif
with the passing clouds of passion 
surging through the sensuous storm
to the unwary horizon dark 
halcyon once with splendorous hues 
tinting the chameleon transformation
on the convoluted yearning canvas ablaze 
as from its burning rememrance remnant 
the abandoned ashes fly away.

The shards of the splintered hope
in the swirling squall of relentless agony  
afloat on the melancholic waves 
of melted fervor flowing in the stream of tears 
the remaining rays of sanguinity 
survive still in the final flashes 
of the sinking sun not yet morbid
fabricating the last lattice latent
of the tapestry of dream 
swathing the panorama of the promising life.
