The Ides of March

The Ides of March have come and gone
And left its shadows liaison
They fell upon the ground in gray
And made it hard to find my way

I searched the forest of appease
Watched the dancing of the leaves
Made metaphors of what I could
And stored my mind those understood

An arrows time has pierced my heart
And shred the canvas of my art
I find no water left to drink
The clouds within the mist past shrink

And age does not forgive mistake
It shrinks to dust the essence lake
And once again becomes the grime
To form again in chaos time

And who can know what time will bring
Or what will be the coming spring?

No one works cadence like you do me Sultan of the Sonnet  *LOL*

Ah dear Sy the Ides of March have indeed passed...
and we're still here!  

What's this???
Did you see who I just saw??
The gentle winds of Spring
brought out our Janet Marie!!

Please please ask her to write something Sy.
She'll do it for you, and Randy..I know.  

Hugs for this lovely!

Dearest Tink, Your comment is like a bowl of chicken soup. And there is nothing I could use more at this moment. Tell Randy I'd trade places with him if I could.
Your reply is like a resporator to me, I don't know how long it will last but I thank you for it. You read me like no one else I know and I am thankful to you.
Stay well and know you are always in my heart and mind.
Sy

Sy,
    Truly beautiful.  I myself wonder what will be coming, but I think I'll take it as it does.  I don't think I could handle knowing for certain....


Thanks for provoking some thought out of me today...

I find the following especiall fine!:

"The Ides of March have come and gone
And left its shadows liaison
They fell upon the ground in gray
And made it hard to find my way

I searched the forest of appease
Watched the dancing of the leaves
Made metaphors of what I could
And stored my mind those understood"

I'm just not 'grammatically sure' about the last line above?!

So, sir Sy, does dislexia cause one to
alter small words and turn them backwards?

Nice write as always....
