Through Graphite Grey Surround

Graphite greys surround
The ancient in deathly stare
Horizon brings hope
A long forgotten orb peers
Through Nuclear fallout, she smiles

Oooh, that's a scary thought, James. Long after man has self-destructed, the ssun will still rise. Brilliant poem! So much said in a few words. Love, Carolyn
