Karen Anglesey Poet Free verse

Zin

Withering auras of Zin surround
The tears of a crying heart
Trickling down through ancient vines
Spilled into pools of sacred red wine

Where pain freely flows
Until the brooding heart glows
Embraced in time, sharp edges refined
Drifting to sheer delight
 
Zin pours from sepulchers divine 
Sanctioned in muted candle’s light 
Promises the spirit to ignite 
Reflected in his sparkling eyes
