Imprint; Stains of Red
Jeremy Taylor 1613 – 1667 (Lisburn)
Memories replay each horrific embrace
Rapture, stilled thoughts, embrace - silence of the night,
As droplets echo within the night's silence….
Images scatter, stirring deep within ….
Alluring thoughts of interest shift,
Questions of interest aspired; drawn firmly within the sand
Displacement of a grain; ripples in subtle water;
Vibrations disturb all waking thought; - Whispers of a calling wind
Nightmares of romance dance;- shadows of mist
Memories replay each horrific embrace
Rapture, stilled thoughts embrace silence of the night,
Words of spoken expression; now bled; -
