Poetry : Drama in the Sky
The wind, strong and chilly
Golden yellow leaves of the poplar
Cling desperately to thin haggard branches
The silence is uncanny
Murky mist seeps through
The very core of my being
My thoughts are frozen in time
Memories close in like a blizzard of snow
the other poem
The drama in the sky unfolds
A flash of lightning marks the brilliant opening
With thunderous applause it begins to pour
The trees, their heads bowed, cry ceaselessly
The wet sun struggles to release itself
From behind the heavy cloud cover
The spell is strong, possessed, I drift into a trance
The sounds of thunder & flashes of lightning cease
The curtain falls
Complete silence follows
Nothing moves, not even a single leaf
My other poem Detritus is on my blog.. follow link to read that.

Post a CommentGreat imagery!
Congratulations on being published! Thanks so much for sharing these. I read them both with fascination! You see the feelings in all living things. I'm very touched by this, Tiku!
The trees, their heads bowed, cry ceaselessly- I do love the imagery...silence is powerful, esp after such clamor. Hopefully something is learned and appreciated.
