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 ______________________________________________________ 3/10/2016 For the contest Overgrown with Vines Sponsored by Broken Wings
