Windmills of the Mind

Like rain cloud stragglers that co-exist Darker shaded sky, vastly does persist Sunset begins and yellow sets the stage In front, we’re windmills of a fallen age Moving gently through a slight calming breeze Around it goes pumping water with ease Multiple blades dark from a sunset blaze Un-hindered by any slight weathered glaze Just like the windmills of my aging mind I search a memory but seldom find The missing link, the power surge elect It’s my thoughts of which I can’t circumspect In its time, this aquatic synergy Was tooled, but now, I’m out of energy Contest: Grab your Partner Sponsor: POETESS DARKLY 1/30/2014
