Purest falling waters sting as hearts ebb and voiceless tides wash memories to darkened seas. In a time of silent recall, of sighs beyond granite edges of anxious spires, where soar of hawks, on hurtling wings, grasp unseen breezes that wash the eyes of trodden souls. A place an oboe wails in lament of sweet love's bitter death as Pathos waning cries dwell upon the harp’s lingering strum. And as the blackened sun smothers on white crescent rise...the owl shall plea of loneliness as grey wolves chorus a lifeless and chilling moon shimmer on darkened eyes. |

Great write Barry....much enjoyed the read. Hugs~Nancy |

dark this - stirs the shadows within - very moody - Hugs - Susan Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |
