Fallen colors swirl about

Watching the ceiling fan

In this dying state

They all frown upon you

Made love with passion and feeling
But his ardour subsided

Premium Member have you ever heard a ceiling speak

the ceiling was in a whispering mode
Greek to me because it was in code
made it difficult to fall asleep
Have you ever heard a ceiling speak?

From shining floor up to ceiling;

And Brenda's poems that are appealing.
