KEN ALLAN DRONSFIELD


KEN ALLAN DRONSFIELD

A TINGE OF TEARS IN THE MIST

I'm leaning on the oak tree
Listening to our cherished song;
the lyrics run down my cheeks and
the melody hugs and tugs at my soul.
A time to breathe; a time to dream,
a time to wonder; or ponder the illusion;
while birds flutter about the leaves,
in this mist I feel you closer.
Tears in the autumn mist fall
by the winding chilly brook;
The memories beget a peace;
continuing down a winding path.
Follow me where the Sun
warms my fallen essence;
then softly whisper a sonnet
to serenade a dispirited heart.
Wipe these stinging tears
from my whetted cheek once more
I'll return at sunrise once again,
to embrace the memory that is you.






A VELVET DAWN

The Autumn winds bring winter snows ...
I wait for you by the old cart path.
the full moon hides as I wish you love ...
This love from me to you.
I feel it strong through the velvet dawn ...
as I wait for your return.
A barren stare through a mirrors glare ...
I know that you are there.
A serene promise and blessings to share ...
I sit and love only you.
The season's may change, trees now bare...
I'll miss you and forever will care.
My heart waits only for you.






RESONANCE OF LOVE

Patterned pain from the lost kindred
resonance of love felt by the heartless
wanton telling of tales in lost tongue
a whistling rhyme vibrates Plato's ear.
Tasting dreams of all spoiled children
orbs adrift disappearing before dawn
a pious discontent is left in the soul
liars are often cowering underground.
Alight upon the head of an icy needle
street urchins smile for a lone dollar
a red tide abates at the lowest ebb
whirling about we simply wait to die.
Vibration causation in a feted toddy
watch lava destroy a lonely memoir
scribe your lines to a summers crush
the resonance of love just drifts away.
