Poem -
The Black Path
Blindly walking the black path
Ecstasy peppered with pain
Thick raindrops splash my forehead
A feeble attempt of redemption
The putrid oil of sour soil
Gray death smiles in the rain
A pea soup fog
Morning walkers with dogs
Where did this journey begin?
My eyes avert their questioning gaze
No sleep for days
I answer silently...
With saturated soul and skin

Hi Syd...Great imagery that creates the greyness of a walk in the rain....I love poetry that makes me feel and see what the reader expresses...and this one definitely does that! Thanks for sharing your amazing talent. xo ;)
Thank you for your lovely comment Cherie. I'm glad you enjoyed the poem, it may have took me a while but hopefully I'm getting the hang of this 'poetry thing'.
I don't get much time to read others work much lately with working extended hours.
Hope you're keeping well - Syd xo
