Midnight
Darkest hour
No light

Day gone
Fades into black
Moves on

Moon shows
Chases the gloom
And glows

A beacon guides the path

As tiny feet make their way

Down the darkened hallway

Seeking comfort in the night

She remembered so vividly

The calling of the wind

As it swept through her hair

With the whisper of a howl

Swirling about in rose scented air

Gathering thoughts in the breeze

Sharing secrets with her soul

Asleep in the bed of an oyster’s chateau

The jewel of the ocean in illuminating glow

Pink against white against gray, simply grand

Mother of Pearl holds the sea in her hand

Dreams of the beautiful treasure she’ll grow

With one grain of sand and the waters below

Lined with nacre, layer upon layer

Mother of Pearl, iridescent purveyor

Friday Fantasy ~ Endless Chains

Unfinished tasks running stagnant

Body falling apart in fragments

Suffering fate no longer humane

Dragging about life’s endless chain

Forged with the sins of man and his mind

Ego inflated, dilated, unkind

Donning a hollow, negative mask

Evil has conquered this one final task

While laughing at you with nary a care

He’s trapped you inside these bonds that you wear

For they will continue to burden and drain

And rust as you pull against agonizing pain

No escape can you find as your ego deflates

Trying again to be human, too little, too late
