Breezes of Nuance







Breezes of Nuance


There were whispers calling at the edge
Asking questions about the moment
That was disappearing unto the walls.

What is there to say to a room that calls
Away the light of reason into a torment
And urges to step closer to the ledge

Where the spaces between past and present wedge
Upon the mind’s natural flow
Appalling the eyes to see unfamiliar stays;

Believing that windows and doors are ways
From where memories move to and fro
Like breezes of nuance moving across the field’s sedge

And with each empty grasp the heart sighs
At the glooming of the light;
Seeking the peaceful touch of night.

For tomorrow blue skies
Will stand in solemn expanse and height
As the line of black birds fly away from sight.

What moved me away to the edge -
Will I understand what it meant
To come to be where a sinner falls.
