Small Beer In Death Valley

Dead autumn leaves my shroud of love decayed Then winter snow my frozen coated heart I built my lonely hall, with walls so tall, Then hid deep down, beneath the ground sans sound This lone, which I called home was so forlorn Hospital hell, my self-made get well cell Dried clay forest fires flames dance dark descends Light strikes new roots waterfalls asunder Dawn cracks in dark, new buds of light shoots through My thawed out heart, it dares to dream new hope I hum a song with guilty cautious joy My eyes smile bright of peaceful open tunes Spring snowdrop crops to heaven clouds protrude And Summer showers, bring rainbow beams alive 07/04/2010
