Apocalypse It is near the time when it is told, The earth is now growing old, The people have become to bold, Rulers just collect the gold, The heart of man has grown cold, An Elijah came and was seen, By the world through conventional means, Even for the rebellious teens, For the mother that weens, A set rule was given this is true, That fact is that no one knew, They didn't even have a clue, The sky's of blue, Would soon to to gray, The people had lost thier way, The time had come, they would pay. Now their bodies lay strewn across the land, never to walk another day. Amber Whitman THE GARDEN GATE Open the garden gate Butterflies float gently on the breeze as they flutter by Emerald tones of grass blanket the ground. Rose's trail and twist on the broken trellis. Petals glisten and radiate rainbow blooms Tiny birds flit across your path The sun warms your face. This is utopia Open the garden gate Dismiss In your eyes there is darkness. It is a void that cannot be filled. Blood runs cold through your veins and you dismiss the pain. Your words come fast and strong like an arrow to my heart. In the darkness you live and enjoy it there. You want me to join you in the abyss. Forever left in the dark, never to come into the light.
Snow floated gently to the ground. The Ice queen watched the people run around. Her Breath spreading out on the window like the ghost of time. The Past, present and future was on her mind. Thoughts and images played like film on a reel. Her emotions turned like a spinning wheel. A tear pooled slowly on her cheek and fell. She wished to open the window and yell. I hold in my hand a tear from my eye. She opened the window and threw the tear down. The wind whistled and whispered through town. It fell into the snow and crystallized there. The people all stopped to gawk and stare. A prism of light shone into the night air. The ice queen’s heart buried there was cold and bare. The snow lightly fell as she watched the people gather round. |
