National Poetry Month: Black Narcissus
Today begins my annual participation in National Poetry Month where I write a poem a day for the month of April. So here’s today’s offering…
Black Narcissus
Velvet and ebon petals hide
all those evening tear stains
in the shadows of the past
Such sweet graceful delicacy,
above that wind-blown pain
velvet and ebon petals hide
Rare and aloof, untouchable
A dark beauty perched atop
all those evening tear stains
Abide eternal in silence
and where footsteps walk
in the shadows of the past
