Stones

I hollowed out my bones,

Vaguely thinking of the sea.

Would I sink, just like stones?

Alas, just let it be.

Fragility

The trees are stripped bare,

The leaves are crisp underfoot,

How fragile life is.

Pages

A pen falls from my hands,

Words bar, lines form a cage.

My eyes weep and in lands,

Upon these stained pages.

Clipped Birds

I dreamed of unwritten words,

Pairing well with fine Bordeaux,

And clipped wings of fallen birds,

Fingers wet with fallen woe.

Hidden beneath the floor boards,

For nigh on a century.

Oh, what tales those soles record.

This was recovered beneath the floor boards of my parent’s house, as they are renovating.

Fire

I could never miss you more,

Always your devoted bride,

And as you walk through the door,

Knot

Tears in my eyes as you spoke,

Preparing for the onslaught,

Alone under the old oak,

So, I tie my lover’s knot.
