Funneled

I know he's there in the background
pushing a little each day,
but the mind and the eye that sustains one
is soon blinded by words of "heard say".

The silence of feeling is dream-edged,
remembrance a thing of the past,
and under the bed are the ghosts that still haunt
always leaving sweet taste of the last.

I'm costumed pretending the yesterday
surrounded by life and its spin,
while drinking the want of tomorrow
when today is the lost held within.

I answer myself in the mornings,
each sunrise a garden of new.
I watch as the clouds become funneled,
for a peace that will come raining through.

Interesting ‘write’!

I particularly like:

“The silence of feeling is dream-edged,
remembrance a thing of the past…”;

“surrounded by life and its spin…”;

AND:

“each sunrise a garden of new”

Applause!

Thank you, all~~

besides whatever else is going on (or not) in my life, I work at the MD Renaissance Faire during these 2 months and dress up,
giving me a chance to masquerade and live in another time every weekend.
