Rip it open, find sadness

Cloudburst in the horizon

Pluck acoustic guitar strings
On the cusp of spring...

trees are in a sombre mood

Listening to the winter rain
Sit we sombre wolves urbane
To the mountains, long to go
Where we listen to the snow...

Words are written on ministry walls
Deeds are earmarked in history
In between lie the unassuming
In the end recorded as a sombre barroom tale...

The hoot owl now hoots
In the sombre wintry night
Down low are his foes

Ebullient expressions!

Filled the vacant heart
In sombre skies a star shone bright
Whiff of baking cake !

The rains take a halt,
The moon graces the night sky,
Changing looks and forms,
The clouds wear a sombre look,
The night is cold and windy.

The problem seeks to end us.
To show its fangs.
To show its wrath.
In the end no blood was spilled.
No rips.
Nor tears.
Only a quite sombre.
As the Problem consumes us all....

the bubble 
             burst
indolesence
         resumes
deflated
shaken
sombre
         inside,
phobias form;
pity,pity
performs
her
     siren
             song......

Sombre, soaking gazing eyes
fixed so happily on the skies
Dreaming over waves so far
of life and love and blinking stars
Don't worry over responsibilities
Live now almost drunkenly...

I feel riddled with sickness,
plagued by all infirmity.
Like a fiddle playing a -
score of sombre tunes.

Summer Song

Serenade slowly sweet songstress,

Sing soft sombre sonnets,

Something, somehow, someone  shares,

Seduced somewhat, songbird spirit,

Steadily sending summer sprung....

The mines have taken my strength
	        taken my sight
                and   taken my breathe
Crawl to the light I cannot, thus my
Energy 
Nor will I see the light before I die
			 I am hopeless....

the grey outlook,
bleak sombre forsook,
awful, subtle, painful part,
rose of grey, on a thorny day,
me brains locked up in park.:)
 
thank you,
 
Russells "Grey Roses"  made me do it.

Hymn of owls
Symmetric opus
Hymn of owls
Traveling skies

the nebula of darkness
brought me here

As I lay in this mortal cascet
of sombre yearning

I journey through portals
my funeral fire, now burning...

As comforted by, Autumn eve
With it, approaching
Choice grim hansom requested of
The sombre-inclined.

Aptly quaint, to be enclosed
And snuck away in
Misty-glassed, puce velvet-hung, down
Dim pasts that does wind....

Storage for souls,
Home for the deviant,
Imprisoned for a transformation,
Secluded for a change,
Made to walk on a sombre-solitude path,
Harbinger to newness.

Colors of roses,
  Bliss of cherries.

 The carolling bells,
   Smiling candles.

 Herd heroes excited,
   Sombre flowers lighted!

 Snow angels flying,
   Silky stars shaking!
 
 Heavenly love,
   Bloom at night !!...

beware of the triple curse, aflame,
green fire burns out a name,
on a tombstone sombre lit,
beware of ol Tom Tit,
a legendary name...
half wit...
insane...
a bit...
so lame ......
