THE NIGHTINGALE Come morning of the Nightingale, Draw tight the veil, don’t lift the eyes¼ For in such things all dark avails And Death entails her prize. In daily whims, while Darkness swims Across horizons vast, Hold tight the dreams for all they seem Through visions of the past¼ Holy, indeed, and yet we bleed, Wholly, indeed, but still¼ The presence lifted finds us sifted, Grievously, ill- Fated for the most part in a dying art, Echoed only in song. Come mourning of the Nightingale We’ll wail o’er her wrong. Michael Anderson But dreams of those who dream as I, Aspiringly, are damned and die.

I liked it. Very interesting. Ronil (The sweet sound of summer sends serenity through my soul searching for that evermore solitude.) |
