Labyrinth

Veiled reflections, curtained mirrors,

Sighed eyes, nature’s sigh.

Corn flowers hold their breaths;

A feather rests before it flies.

Restless butterflies, swaying flowers,

Fluttered lashes, sparkled ripples.

Sleepless, dreamless summer’s nights,

Against moon, willow grove’s un-triumphant fights.

Threatened grassland when predators hunt;

Alerted eyes, oceans unfathomed,

Silence of the raising tides,

Whispers of washed shores.

Unspoken tales of ages unfold,

As those innocent pools flutter.

Many seasons are caught, so am I

In the dark labyrinth of your eyes.
