The lines are rocky rough
Red angels wait to pick remains

I loosed my songs to let you know.

Gazing At Cindered Skies
...Torturous curves bending vision,
twisting to hide beyond today
what the prism of the future
holds captive down the whispered way.
Lost to us Love's fledgling glory,
gazing too long at cindered s......

Where Wordsworth stood alone
To pour his heart upon the wave.
And I open mouthed wondered
