Portents


Bird song,
silent.
Sunrise,
but a mere,
soft lessening of the darkness.
Wind,
not a breath sighs in the still.
Mournful,
the train's distant call escapes,
winding itself into the landscape,
and is lost.
The storm,
stealthy in her advance,
waits not.

  1. Oh wow...so deeply evocative of the approaching storm: that stillness that comes before the storm...the mournful sight and sounds.
    Oh this is fantastic...:)

    1. Thank you, Ygraine! I have missed writing and plan on continuing. It was quite an emotional roller coaster ride going over my posts from the past few years. Your words of encouragement are very welcome :) xx
