Drooping Shadows |

Drooping Shadows My shadows droop in fond farewell Each outflow shows less bond of dwell Fading from a gray intense to Lighter shades of stray dispense They tweak my mind with weaker hues Less green and much more rues of blues So dark the holes, I cannot see Debris becomes a mystery I sweep the cobwebs of my thoughts The catch of life and what it caught But time has worn the facing dim And through the lacing slips the whim I patch the whole with fantasy A plug or two of ecstasy And argosy my ship of sleep This fresh of tide, upon the neap I see the curtains close embrace And nose upon the reapers face |

You crafted this well and I can feel the shadows drooping. Much enjoyed. Susan Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |

"I see the curtains close embrace And nose upon the reapers face" Yes, indeed! Something to ponder instead of being discouraged by droop. *grin* The message in your poetry is always carried comfortably by its delivery. That is a high level skill which I admire. |
