Your music speaks and I inhale < !signature-->Stricken down the mighty gale Calms and soothes the rangy beast Flocks the earth for famine’s feast Wither down the after glow On my knees I will bestow The razor’s edge a heart felt kiss And dangle from the precipice Add one more note of harmony And it will be the end of me If my heart shall suffer spasm I’ll fall into the yawning chasm And there my heart be held in sway For ‘til your music comes my way I’ll fill my lungs with my despair And cough gray smoke into the air Tickle my throat with your kiss Haul me from the precipice Raise me into the funnel cloud Bury me with a sinner’s shroud Walk my bones to the limosuine Shade me from the mourner’s scene The storms you send are from hell Soothe me from the dying knell The last fading scent of your perfume Darkness falls and the light consumes The breathing stops the calm is grim I hear sung my favorite hymm My eyes are losing their conceit My heart stops from rhythmic beat The razor’s edge is searing hot And life all seems it was for not I hear my mother sing to me The calming comfort brings to me The dusty shroud falls to the floor Babe in mother’s arms once more Buried alive I was in a canyon in a cavern excavatin for a mine dwelt a miner forty niner and his daughter clemintine!!! yeehaw!

WOW, a very dark poem, some fantastic images, Tickle my throat with your kiss Haul me from the precipice Raise me into the funnel cloud Bury me with a sinner’s shroud Walk my bones to the limosuine Shade me from the mourner’s scene The storms you send are from hell Soothe me from the dying knell The last fading scent of your perfume Darkness falls and the light consumes The breathing stops the calm is grim I hear sung my favorite hymm WOW again, I really enjoyed this one, A great read. I sense alot of agony in the words, I hope every thing is ok. ------------------------ "Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?

This is brill, Walt! It was like a movie playing itself in my mind's eye. Wonderfully descriptive. Love and hugs, Lizzie  "Poetry is the true expression of my soul, it is my ultimate means of communication. It is my rainbow of delight." |
