lake cradles the moon
the mournful cry of a loon
tender nights of June
for Carol's contest
Eerie squeaky door
Dripping pipe drips on the floor
Mournful wind cries more

The moon hangs her mournful head
like a jilted love.
Tears rain... cacaphonic stars.
-my first attempt at a haiku! Enjoy...
Melancholic skies
Skilled at hiding mournful eyes
Cry tears of April.

Why am I sad
Saddy-sad-sad
Saddy-sad, saddy-sad
Saddy-sad-sad.
Why is life bad
Maddy-sad-bad
Maddy-sad, maddy-sad
Maddy-sad-bad.
As the aged
oak tree weeps
vibrant, autumnal gales
the mournful phase begins
as acorn teardrops
fall
Dart anywhere:
"lonely, mournful; please return",
picked from limb by limb--
hold them to your aching chest;
they are all alone with you
You cry,but bring
no mournful look;
Will not My brook
cool your brow?
Will not My joy
pour out from you..
tomorrow..if not now!
Chivalry is dead
Only damsels in distress
Mournful requiem
Whispers in a cursing wind
Anger in stormy skies
Rain falling like mournful tears
Fear in the heart
Panic and torment
in the mind.

Form:
the mighty oak falls
and all the forest weeps, their
mournful echoes float
above the canopy, as
the giant lies in repose

A smile hides sometimes
The deep feelings of the soul
Hidden from outside
With a transparent armor
Covering like a black veil

a whales mournful cry
fades into history’s past
silent oceans weep

Lord,
Let me view the world
At each new dawn,
Through childish eyes.
Fixate my thoughts,
Not on sounds
Of an awakening city,
But the mournful cry
Of one bleating Lamb.
With seductive guile, they play a mournful dirge for their unwary prey.

mournful autumn rain
season of the copper halls -
summer bloom has bent
Silence so deep you can almost hear the snow fall..
While velvet drifts pile up against the cabin wall..
And then the lonely wolf begins his mournful call..
Ink
death rose
gothic mood
gallows bouquet
sweet scented aroma, grave companions
deep Mahogany, blood stains, velvet touch
doleful embers
charred petals
mournful
grief
With eyes that see and ears that hear,
but hearts that look away
Each child unkept—all life bereft,
to rue these mournful days
(Children's Hospital Of Philadelphia: March, 2020)
Soft grey demeanor
Gentle as the passing breeze
Symbol of Peace
Hiding in the pecan tree
Mournful coo calls out to me
For the sweet bird contest.
I see the mournful look
In his teary eyes
While I rate what a woman
Means to a man
The look that tells me more
Of a lost hope
A look that speaks the wish
To be with the lost soul
at trumpets' blast
at snaredrums' roll
flautists pipe
bells mournful toll ...
doors creak late evening
owls hoot at will
Is yon graveyard still
high on the hill
one less song in the night air
mournful, the nightingale's shrill
when the evening shadows stretch
one less lament carried on the breeze
(this was inspired by a bird's egg, smashed on my sidewalk)
