Daylight does not last forever
It parts when its time is done
Hides behind the hills of heather
Bows to the slowly setting sun
Casts its final shadows deep
Against the dark of the night
Tis this time, she peacefully sleeps
Til morning dares to share her light

It’s that time of year again, when I start to take weekends off from my blog, not totally, but enough to be able to spend time with my family. So, Backyard Buddies returns for Season 2 🙂

A hidden cave, the wind, a rush
Where spirits linger, under brush
Some may show themselves to you
While others share a different view
You never know when they’ll appear
Perhaps it’s just that one stray deer
Who grazes, on the leaves of green
And every flower, in between
Nonchalantly, he will walk by
Then disappear, in bushes, high
Maybe you’ll chance a stroll, go to him
Dare to be brave, go out on a limb
Fear not the company, of those spirits, light-hearted
For they guard the shelter, of the dearly departed

Wooden slats laid on the floor
Up the sides, so many more
The ceiling’s just another wall
Insanity finds you, you start to fall
Down to the bottom, no sign of light
No windows nor doors, it must be the night
Nowhere to turn, nowhere to run
When will this agony ever be done?
You feel all around, as you move side to side
It’s too dark to tell, for fear, where you hide
Down in the corner, head in your hands
You cry out in anguish, silent demands
But no one can hear you, they’ve all gone away
In this wooden box, forever, you’ll stay
