Solitude Poem by Kevin Patrick

Within this shaded hour
the minutes fall to amber
in the calm pool of infinity
drifts a silent song of peace
as candles drip melodically
unfurling petals of soft flames
their folded tongues exposing
the yellow arms of nights embrace



And as I walk
among the cloisters
I feel transformed
Into an unchained raven
Sailing soft and solitarily
in the time scape of eternity
with wings against horizons dawn
forward and unbound
flying on for forever
and forever...
