A sparrow falls, and no one knows Except those held within His hand The demon calls and no one shows Except those sent by his command The darkness reigns and no one cares Except those called to do His will Then buoyed upon the wind by prayers The victim learns to breathe, be still The thunder roars and no one hears Except those captured in His thrall And no one comes to dry those tears Except the one who gave His all The groom returns and no one knows Except for those who watch and wait The world still turns in ebbs and flows But now is left to its own fate The seasons change to bring new life And no one sees except His flock But they have left this world of strife And louder grows the ticking clock Tic TIc TIC TIC! Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

I like the edit on this one Keth. It makes it more effective. Excellent, and ominous, and gives me almost a sense of panic. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |

Beloved one Oh my when you write you really write, and this is outstanding, the phrasing, the form and the content are all excellent. What seems to make it even better is the feeling it evokes, only a poet of your quality can direct the reader this way. As I said beloved one it is exquisite writing and I love it utterly, utterly, utterly. and forever Mushy Tomorrow is another day I don't know what it holds |

I see a succession of films dealing with the theme of life or lack thereof after major disasters, atomic explosions, alien invasions or tidal wave wash out...it points to an obsession on out mortality.. that somehow we know we are dancing with the devil before he's had enough....and in the real world?Good write!
