ALLEY LOST ?

Melancholy madness mine
silent songs scream from home.
An alley filled with other cats
love memories, on the phone.

Once so many avenues open
detoured into price, then cost.
Happy, happy for your happiness
sweet sorrow for our loss.

So many roads we explored
then fear chased us away.
Uncertain to the final fault
perhaps, once upon another day?

There is no balm to heal, renew
no poultice of greens or moss.
Our path seems closed forever
tell me love, am I an alley lost?

from his arm,

Yo, big guy.. nice poem, man, an alley lost? hehe, probably an alley gain? hehe..

The beauty of nature is displayed,
not through itself,
but through the creatures
dwelling within its bosom.

What an excellent poem..I agree that it is an alley found...
