stillness of heart by Richard TrotterOn a still day with shrouded magic
A whirlpool behind the dirty sky
Illuminating a sleeping wants list,
Left unfinished, dripping with snail silver
Half painted models in the workshop
Dropped for an easier life.
Tense oceans never crash and roar
Though burning to return
When the pastels of bronze and amber
Are split upon buds in anger,
Growth streams an anguished cry
And objects float back into place. 10/25/2006 Posted on 10/25/2006 Copyright © 2025 Richard Trotter
