Don't be my nightmare
But my dream
Love me until
Fragile heart believes

Inked in
sanguineous
tones
was her
crown,
and with
true
grit,
our queen
never
backed
down.
Seemingly
soft
was her
every
edge,
but deep
inside,
she
harboured
it.
What, you ask?
Never
you
mind,
lest
it hears
your
thoughts.

To an ocean my words
Quids worth of ink to tell them
How you mesmerize my mind
Morph me into madness
Wanting you
The sea in me

She will mesmerize while her form
continues to morph in a deimatic display
hoping to distract while she makes her escape
to the open seas

Moonlighting
In the orchard
Drinking cider apple wine
Stealing stars
To make poems rhyme
We were vagabonds

In sepia days
A long time ago
Men watched the tides
Ebb n flow
But all is gone
Drab n grey
My monochromatic memory
Blown away

The sepia toned photographs also found did evoke the memories of the coastal town’s founding and the scandals that went with it!

Hope it was just a memory
Not a premonition:
Seas turned to blood because all land is soaked & laden with ghosts due to a Roast

My memory is full of monochromatic
images with pale skies I would die for
any color, even plain sepia

Timeworn
A camera for his eyes
Lighthouse for memory
Which fades
Like sepia
And floats
Before the monochrome
Mystery in fact

Life lived in sepia tones

Passionless monochrome

Slight memory lingers of

Vivid colors 'fore you were gone

Past captured in
Monochromatic pictures
Bygone places lost to time
But preserved in memory
With vivid color

seen in sepia
monochromatic
views of horizon
calm hues,
mercifully
letting memories lay still.

Newspaper clippings
Copper dust
A storm
On memory hill
Monochromatic wave a
Shade of sepia
& still😀
