Drying Hearts
~~~


Incense bespoke
without regret
within a hasty reckless shower
Entrusting hearts
of love do split
beneath
a never blooming
flower
~
Tears induced
through heartless spieling
strike the floor
by anger lured
Most resent
their source of feeling
and crucify
with angry word
~
Venom drips
from eyes tomorrow
with deadly
seeded thoughts today
Roots entwining
blot the sorrow
but dry the hearts
along the way
~~~

Very well done.  Angry and thoughtless word can wring a poor heart dry.  Joyce

to drop a letter
with intent
leaves this dying
in venom spent

Well done, Sir!

Enjoyed the read.

The sign of a good poem for me is the ease in which it rolls off the tongue, this one rolled easily and several times.
