Crouched here in the corner of the ceiling
watching myself – fighting to endure –
I stifle tears, for I am but his essence
growing dimmer as...

Garden was all alone,
Unloved and uncared for,
Hadn’t always been that way,
Once a pride and joy for all,
Spectacular and beautiful,
People loved to be there with garden,
Friends...

Quietness upon the face,
Silence and loneliness,
Land before time,
Before living things existed, 
Sadness as my waters ran through the earth,
Was my voice the only thing to...

the tide swallows the ride

The motion of water

As you take your children down the history without and in us
We fondly and times...
