1. A Room In The Old Landscape
Some books piled in the corner,
a chair rocking by the fireplace,
through the window, outside,
the same aged vision,
the lantern, burning cold light,
later, some birds flying in a convoy,
their reflection in the mirror,
looking back, we can remember,
there was a room in the old landscape.
2. Gaps In The Painting
3. ...Superlative Dreams, Magnificent Shadows...
There is a sense of stillness,
gaps in a strange painting,
an old feeling hovering,
the flicker from a candle dying,
its flame no longer warming,
pestilent our lives and aging,
somehow there is no return,
or if there was, we missed it on our way,
traversing a path we never chose.
We were told that we could
find the place of our vagary,
somehow we skipped it on our way,
what is left to think positive,
when all that remains,
is only a shadow of a dream,
a magnificent shadow of a superlative dream,
yet a shadow nonetheless?
