Silent Combs of Pen
Silent Combs Of Pen
Hello good friends
Inspiration
Of songs sung
By wind chimes rung
Miles away
On a mountain
Say you sleep
In longing do I rise
To sit beside your side
And listen to the anthem
That brings the night to life
But it’s nearly the witch’s hour
How alone I mock and scour
As nights growing power
Splits the very sky
For words feed my hunger
As night shells out its thunder
Let pen wrought and plunder
Thoughts inside my mind
That catches waves at nap
Or songs love birds rap
How silently my wife
Sleeps inside our bed
And I wonder if she wonders
Why awake I cannot slumber
As to sit in idle umbra
Wielding silent combs of pen
For awake or in dream
We are cast upon life’s sea
Only distance sets us free
Come let us be upon our way
