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

A Sombre Bar Tale

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

Premium Member The Hoot Owl

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

Ebullient Expressions

Ebullient expressions!

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

Just August

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 State

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.

Premium Member Siren Song

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

Daydreams

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

Each Age For Silliness

Each Age for silliness
Laughed back on is.
By its more sophisticated 
Time-successor.

Itself the butt, to be
Of the same joke:
"Rusty, fusty; too slow; sombre.
And more; a bore!"

A Fiddler's Demise

Summer Song

Summer Song

Serenade slowly sweet songstress,

Sing soft sombre sonnets,

Something, somehow, someone  shares,

Seduced somewhat, songbird spirit,

Steadily sending summer sprung.

Sombre Mines

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.

Grey Outlook

Nebula of Darkness

Hymn of owls
Traveling skies

As I lay in this mortal cascet
of sombre yearning

I journey through portals
my funeral fire, now burning

As Comforted By, Autumn Eve

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.
Form: Rhyme

Behind the Walls

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.

X-Mas Fragrance.

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 !!

Music; Angel-Inspired

Light has entered
A sombre room.
And not through any window!
Though as divine.

That which vibrates
From what height down
Off whose first inspiring source
For a lyre, heard
Is Heaven's, heavenly. Stirred?
"This soul of mine!"

Velvet murmur hue
intuits bright peep day clue
yet dark sky sports smirk!!

Sly sombre omen,
magpie in  mute  throat a ruse,
connivance in jest!!

Rain coat, brolly, cap,
light shower from downcast vault,
or oddball dry spell!!

Soulful chorus wistful cries, guitar strums last goodbye, bereaved ears melodies speak, breaking hearts rhythmic beats, lyrics rain mirrored skies, shattered tears brittle eyes, as sombre mourners sing

Tranquility

As what falls, to settle upon
A welcoming breast.  *
As a feather, softly, softly
From out storm's unrest.

As what, through an evening mist, of
Earth's sombre veiling
Is, peace-weighed, now lighter for it.
Day care's emtombing.

* Chest/heart

Une Journee Sombre

Béni vos ombres
Il est temps de vous avancer
Je vais vous le montrer
Laisser le matin vous embrasser
Avec bonheur enchanté
Lumière éclatante
Votre amour clairvoyante
Bénidictions des cieux
Miraculeux
Avec la pluie
Je vous bénis 
C'est moi qui te remercie
