Winters edge

Up rose sunshine afore the spring
the howling whistles, shrills a ring
thunder on yet quietly sing
wondering else the winter bring

Snow flurries rush a frequent hale

sitting and fishing, in the eve 
caught ought else’ except a sneeze

A shivering shake, lying wide awake
Rayburn yearning, to bake a cake
no place left to call thine own
nothing remains of a once loved home

The late summer rain fell, ends a spell of drought,
I hear a song of hunger and going without.
Thunderous water nourished the trees, 
the wind dies down to lower the breeze
the flowers, the lawn, a mist settles in 
the early autumn dawn a new era begins 


Early Thursday, a red sun arose in the morning sky, remembrance of a beautiful day weeks gone by.
 I felt the warmth of my skin  nourishment to the soul loved by kin.    a feeling of peace, deep within 

I recall too soon, the bitter twist of karma    a bite from a vile snake charmer.   tragedy strikes the nation, the news is not good,       our queen is dead, hearts are filled with dread, another conservative leader makes her bed





The Broken Horse
