I'll be back in a few days, and hopefully with some brand-spanking new people for you to read. I've been rummaging through various social media sites in the attempt to establish relationships with a few other writers for the purpose of guest blogging. I can only imagine that you get tired of reading only my points of view. So, here's to fresh blood. Now, as a preemptive thank you for not being upset that I'll be gone for a bit, here is one of my favorite poems...
Death's Shore
Wash me away today.
Let my heart ache no more.
Please let it wash the pain away.
I am not alone here,
Although I wish I were.
At my side stands a demon,
A cold and wretched cur.
He is a thing of legend;
A terror of the night.
I should be hiding or running scared,
All consumed in fright.
But on this barren ancient shore,
I feel terrible heartache;
Nothing more.
Let the sea air blow the pain away,
Death just won't take me,
Not today.
