Mountain Muse

Sunrise over high rock. Granit faced, a cliff edge slides into the light. Shadowy mountain sheep leap landing surefooted upon green tufted clouds.

A Memory

From tall church spire
Grassed calms out to
What extends, by the hour
The shadowy.

As sacred over
Thoughts' hallowed ground
What casts, years further back
A memory.

Premium Member Dame Van Dyke

Dame van Dyke now reclines and relaxes,
while her lady-in-waiting re-waxes
      bristled shadowy skin
      of her chinny-chin-chin...
the vexation of vain battle-axes.

The Self At Night

The eerie denizens of night
Have made me their own
Blended me into some
Shadowy creature
Who begs for rest and light
Often destroyed
By wishing to be put 
Back together

Premium Member Dawning In the Garden of Time

Landscape is it’s most persuasive at dawn.
An unpainted garden where phrases of light 
linger in a shadowy silence 
visions for a new day 
between rose shades
All is new again.

Shadowy flame of death
Guardian,protector of the ancient doors
Where in lies the underworlds breath
So beware the craggy shores of hell
Where sleeps the hound of Hades

Shadowy face hides behind

Lead Me Back

Lead me back
To the place of death
So I can feel real
And alive
Lead me back
To my dead lover
So my soul
He can devour
Lead me back
To the cold
Dark grave
That is my shadowy home

Further Along Time's Path

In its winding, more confused
Now spread o'er, whilst deeper chilled
Of those doubts, shadowy
Does one mark, afar, fatigued
His own life's tracking feature.
Self-mourned for...that is me!

Disturbing Career

This is a career politician
The one who tells you,
fluently what he knows not,
promises what he can’t give,
gives hope on the already.
