Adornments Of Time

the road has grown dim

my pace now so tentative

dark shapes follow me

gray now is the earth

i encrusted with black scum

bones worn and brittle

weary now it comes

softly all the adornments

of this world beyond

Hello dear friends and readers. I am home once more.About eight weeks ago I fell and broke both my wrist, shoulder and humerus bone. Ouch! I am healing slowly so it will be awhile before I am up to writing again.
I look forward to writing and reading all of your poems. My husband is typing this for me. Till then, write on my friends.

restless flows the stream
running wild the oceans roar
a storm pulls shells near
behold the king o the deep
living as he pulls

so near

The Grave Yard

gray clouds gather
casting shadows
over the ancient graveyard
tombstones weep elemental moss
tears of long ago line the stones
covering neglected graves worn
to nothing as the wind sounds hollow
in this forgotten place

in a mirror round
illusions dart in and out
shadows swiftly move
