Exceptional Free Verse Free Verse Collection : The Sleeping Music by tfawcus

The sleeping music lies in harmonies of stream and spring and waterfall; glissandos into pools where quiet waters swirl, and leaves stirred by the evening breeze perform a pas-de-deux. When silken skies subside, enchanted, gold and rose, their glow embalms the sallow flesh of day and calms each bruise, till in sleep I'm drowned with echoes of those whose shadows form, like flotsam on the dead sea swell; fragmented figures from the past, now bereft of sound.
