Spiritlessness

quavering soul eclipse to blame with smoldering fire's charring croon they dared to play with such a flame desoul the spiritlessness moon with smoldering fire's charring croon they came away so scorched in gloom desoul the spiritlessness moon tomb in fire that ashes consume they came away so scorched in gloom devouring embers stole the pain tomb in fire that ashes consume left with no apathy again devouring embers stole the pain they dared to play with such a flame left with no apathy again quavering soul eclipse to blame 5/10/2020

Pantoums are difficult to say the least, and you have written one with such beauty! Well done Eve. Well Done! Bravo!

Sad and melancholy so poetically expressed in the lines of your pantoum of metaphor. Congratulations dear Eve. Blessings and prayers.
