M. L. Kiser Poet Free verse

Ruins Speak

Ruins speak
ancient elite
beauty outdone
age old
stones cold
tales told
beyond rot
ruins hot
living legends
in cracks wedging
whispered secrets
Ruins’ spirits
windows hollow
tell of tomorrows
listen closely
stones be boasting
exploiting history
revealing mysteries.

Caren Krutsinger December 22, 2019 at 11:03 AM I love listening to the wise sage old ones - whether people, places, trees, or rocks. M. L. Kiser December 22, 2019 at 8:16 PM There's a lot of wisdom in nature if we just open our spiritual ears. I wish listening could rub off. Thanks again.
