Well the glow within flickers softly dim With the wind from outside in But what good to draw the shade For to darken light was not made That would cast a shadow deep and cold Numbing fingertips that touch the soul Open your arms Don’t hold back your charm Open your arms Don’t hold back … Continue reading Charm By Elton Plett

A Sea of Black By Robert St.Germain
There is a sea of black running through the world. And it drowns everyone in its path. If you are in its grip you will feel its wrath. The only way you can rise above is to open your heart and let in a little love. If you see a tidal wave out to reach … Continue reading A Sea of Black By Robert St.Germain
3/4 Time By Barbara Ellyn
My denial keeps crashing, fear nears I edge away, software tears here dears. Gravity - bad. Cascades worse, mere tears. Yet, frantic for ground, wings clipped, hobbled wound and scars. Can’t waste my pain despairing. Gone years. Truth abandons what’s proper. Steers clear. Facts matter less and heart more - have cheer. Flee to yourself. … Continue reading 3/4 Time By Barbara Ellyn

The Crow By Cassandra Kulay
The crow rises, inky black wings dripping, looking for sanctuary, roaming manifestation of a dream. The avatar expression of the soul, caught between world and world, dark and light, eyes black and bright, leading us to introspection, steering us in the right direction, conscience feeding on the past, bound to make a higher justice last, … Continue reading The Crow By Cassandra Kulay

At Last By Elton Plett
