TELL it to the trees...

TELL it to the trees...

If only daylight would leave the
night alone
But no, it is always meddling,
looking to change things,
Seeking to rearrange things
Concealing the magic, in
Harsh dreary tones

I tried to tell it, that while the
trees may look pretty enough,
Dressed up in green
Nothing compares to nights
silk curtained sheen
Or the eerie still lush of a black
fingered branch
Clutching at moons in the cold
gleaming hush

Marion Price(2020)

This was such an amazing write. Marion, sometimes I find poems can be too dramatic or over wordy for my taste (but eh what the hell do I know) but I found this write really great mix of lightness and mystery, whilst still conveying a darker theme. Pinned for being starstrucked. Best wishes. Your friend Max

drain the yellow

All you got is cold day grey

Or the pinkish blush...
