siren-1191032_960_720Her calling brings longing
To souls lost at sea
Songs of the Siren
She sings them for thee

For men and their ships
Who have sailed to the deep
She callously draws them
Into eternal sleep

With songs from the bottom
Of a watery grave
They’re captured by beauty
Forever enslaved

And though they all know
These tales of the brine
Still they go searching
Time after time….

What happens when the words just fade?

When thoughts no longer are displayed

Upon the empty parchment, where

They used to dance, without a care

Poured so sweetly from my pen

I need to find those words, again

The ones that bared my heart and soul

Emotions, I could not control

Perhaps, they’ve found another place

And I am just another face

Perchance, they’ll once again return

To quell this everlasting yearn

Fractals of snowflakes

Enfetter a naked branch

In winter‘s white lace

beach-371227_1280The color of silver clouded skies

Draws the darkness to my eyes

Brilliance shadowed in puffs of gray

No longer offering light of day

Frozen water from up above

Chilling haze indicative of

Winter’s linger across this place

With frozen kisses upon my face

White enshrouds what cannot bestow

Touched by gently falling snow

Pales the colors once so grand

Now faint upon the ground they stand

Bowing to the shivering wind

Once resplendent fades to dim
