Frayed The Sky's hem unravels. First the golden thread, then the scarlet, leaving only indigo and puce. Night's curtain descends, a charcoal shroud with pinprick holes, as frayed edges dim. All bow to the New Moon's ebony as the Void's brighter shade fills the silent air, as thick blankets of clouds move in and smother hope with despair. © Copyright 2022 Kåre Enga [178.327] (21.januar.2022) 15 lines |
Sunrise mirrored in the buffalo's eyes To see sunrise mirrored in the buffalo's eyes, glinting off the flooded fields where thin blades of grass wait for a breeze to bring it news.
