Snapshot Of Petrified Life
In the mist of the journey’s penultimate mile
at the edge of the fading pasture of future obscure

melodious eve
with horizon touched in gold

Redbird and Cherriesfeasting in the trees
redbird with traces of gold
in crimson sunset

Lost in our own day dream
To bid farewell and say our unspoken goodbyes
To the creators painted canvas...

Swarms in artfulness swirls and whorls and drawn
Glorious heavenly feelings breeze came
Narrow wake trailing off with morning dawn.
