Night

Bullfrogs croak amidst the lilies.
Trees whisper their mournful farewells.
Crickets play their melancholy songs.
Quietly, in her black satin dress, night appears.
Dragonflies make their nightly patrols.
Owls stalk and hunt their prey.
Stars emit their pale,silvery light.
Night.

Behind the Silver Mask

Behind the silver mask.
A sparkling crystal glows.
Behind the silver mask.
China blue eyes sparkle.
Behind the silver mask.
Awaits a beautiful mystery.
Behind the silver mask.
Ruby lips wait for a magical kiss.
Behind the silver mask.
A golden princess slumbers.
Behind the Silver Mask.

Beneath the Secrets

Beneath the secrets.
Lies someone untouched.
Beneath all the lies.
Someone quite honest slumbers.
Beneath the false confidence.
Hides someone quite shy.
Beneath the shimmering illusions.
Lies someone pure.
Under all that deception.
Hides someone quite real.
Beneath the secrets.

Whispers in the Woods

Amidst the lofty branches hide whispers.
Whispers of past regrets.
Whispers of dampened memories.
Amongst the leaves stirrings slumbers.
Stirrings of forgotten feelings.
Stirrings of tamped down thoughts.
Amidst the lofty branches hide whispers.
Amongst the leaves stirrings slumber.
Whispers in the Woods.

Beneath these Scars

Beneath these scars.
A life of fear slumbers.
Beneath these scars.
Years of regret hide.
Beneath these scars.
Lies a shivering, exposed soul.
Beneath these scars.
Hides a terrified child.
Beneath these scars.
Is a life full of thorns.
Beneath these scars.
Lurk terrible memories.
Beneath these Scars.

The Storm Inside

Deep down below.
Far from burning questions.
Away from prying eyes.
A recipe for disaster stirs.
A malicious storm is brewing.
It smashes and rips things apart.
Crashes of thunder explode like artillery.
The storm begins to shred and screams.
Bolts of lightning make the sky bleed silver.
The storm howls like a monster.
Trees bend and crack like whips.
The storm inside brews.
Deep down.
Far from sight.
The Storm inside.

Echo on the Wind

I hear, in the distance,an echoing cry.
So quiet.
So faint.
Louder still, the cry sounds again.
This time, it stirs something inside.
Old thoughts.
Things that have been forgotten.
Past emotions.
Feelings that have been locked away.
I hear a resounding echo.
Once here, now gone.
Then audible, now faint.
Echo on the Wind.

In the Shadows Beyond

In the shadows beyond.
A deadly secret slumbers.
In the shadows beyond.
A mysterious shadow haunts.
In the shadows beyond.
Something is on the prowl.
In the shadows beyond.
Evil lurks.
In the shadows beyond.
Something dangerous stalks.
In the shadows beyond.
Something devilish is watching and waiting.
In the Shadows Beyond.

Dawn

Cardinals chirp on the rooftop.
Bluebirds sing amongst the pines.
Honeybees buzz through the dewey grass.
Slowly, in her red gossamer gown, dawn approaches.
Butterflies dance between the oaks.
Fireflies cease to shimmer.
Crickets halt their melancholy singing.
The delicate scent of daisies hovers on the breeze.
Dawn.


A Nameless Scream on the Wind

I hear, in the darkness, a nameless scream.
In the distance, hopelessly crying out.
Amongst the shadows, the scream fades and grows soft.
Amidst the silence, the scream sounds out.
I hear, one last time, a desperate scream.
A Nameless Scream on the Wind.
