1043

TO SCULP MORNING

You left me taking away

Kisses sweet and long lasting

Thrust of your love gone astray

Banished to hours of longing


Gold clouds of sunset shape

An evening fit for a lover's plate

I supp on tears of ducting tape

Unable to fix this sad fate


A beautiful moon once acclaimed

Is lost to a hazy night's sky

Tonight again would've exclaimed

Were not his treacle words a lie


Ah, but dreams are locked out

For blissful sleep is more healing

Than wasteful time without a doubt

Doors against betrayal unyielding


Tomorrow's first bird song kiskadee

I can sing my name to

With poetic words I shall shape thee

Morning; joyful i will carve too
