The Jester Poems

I can but ever look within
The darkest regions in my mind
Where all that wants to be can want
For nothing, and I often find
...

To fall in love as easily
As winter turns to spring
I start to dread the moment when
My heart begins to sing.
...

Thoughts cannot be masteres
Dreams cannot be tamed
They tear our hearts and cloud our minds
And leave our bodies maimed.
...

Across the night, the moon is towing
A host of clouds that start it snowing
Upon the silver rivers flowing
A tumbing star, the first flake falls
...

One blackened night in Winter's heart
When dreams set sail to sense depart
Twisted in some starry art
I'd sigh for evermore.
...

Clad in gold and swathed in red
Crown of jewels upon his head
Velvet gloves of orange fire
Glorious and fine attire
...

Surrounding shadow closes in
The darkness hangs, begins to grow
With eyes that pierce the shields of men
And fire burns each friend and foe
...

Standing on a distant tower
Plains of green upon it's feet
Worshipping some hidden power
Secrets stone and fire keep.
...
