Underneath the Ivy
Where does the green and grey path travel to
Laden with the hushed love and numbing pain
The dark sky descends to join the weird blue
Whispering in the ears of deep breath lane
Does it lead to the concealed yet green grace
Beneath headstones of the bones in silence
Can you listen my dear pale green Cypress
Can we look just once through your mystic lens
Stark lone tombstones surrounded by close vine
Rare footfalls with the boquets of love breath
For blue shades that once dwelt in now still mind
Now reduced to nothingness underneath
Rest in peace, when the leave bird will call me
Underneath the ivy I will join thee
