Like pockets in Heart
10 October 2015

The drizzling rain sighed
Upon plains of autumn leaves
That sizzled in heat
In memory raindrops fell
Washing down yesterday’s peaks
.

.
Begonias stood dull
Huddled in a tight circle
Wrapped around dark mud
Where did they now disappear
Blazing colours of your Love?
.

.
Petunias listless
Stretched in the midst of vases
Like pockets in Heart
White lies fell on burning Soul
That saw through the stories told
.

.
Cold air touched the heat
Mist-like pattern on the glass
Intrinsic cooling
Reminding me of first chill
My Heart stilled itself like stone
.

.
Voices through the mist
Muffled by the words of loss
Carried themselves low
Within my heart your voice called
Shattering icy carvings
.
