DESPAIR AND TEARS, AS SILENCE REIGNS - by Robert J. Lindley





DESPAIR  AND  TEARS,  AS  SILENCE  REIGNS   


by  Robert J. Lindley



Sun burnt dark crystals sizzle this aching mind
where maple tree ooze their sticky flesh,
as cold harsh silence reigns
Begging sky cries from sun and its scorching flames
as blinded ground wakes to scampering winds,
their voices roaring into eternity
as cold, harsh silence reigns
The flower meadows reach for gasping tones,
demanding Nature plunge about its glories
and in their frenzy, miss dancing clouds above
as cold, harsh silence reigns
The life that invades this body mine,
seeks control over sad singing heart
to smother love's bounty and allow Time to eat eternity,
as cold, harsh silence reigns
