Mid Afternoon Darkness

————————————-

The thunderclaps roll

A sky is dark, like midnight

Only its noontime

Beware, a storm is brewing

Take precautions and keep safe…

Something is amiss

It was missing in your kiss

No passion or bliss

The love we once shared, I miss

Now, all I do reminisce…

Flood

Torrent waters fall 

With nowhere for them to go

Violent overflows

An abundance of excess

Severely needs to escape…

The red curtain falls. 

With a deafening applause

An amazing show

Introspective & Marvellous

Surprising message for all…

Action takes the stage
Drama unfolding in life
Stories coming alive
Fantasy is all too real
And realities, unreal…

Knocked Down (Hard)

Forceful impact’s sound
Resonating through the air
Strength and power shown
Reeling back from the hard blow
Falling on cold hard asphalt…

In a dance of endless time.
