Sand and stones on shore

spilleronsheet

Scorching heat greeted the eyes

Blazing was the sky

Under the roof of expanse

Lay the land

Filled with sand

Built on were dilapidated  past

The story of a lineage

Or the glory of king

The tale of the architect

Or the marvel of craft

Reminiscing was me in my past

A place with visit of twice

Once too innocent to insight

Other bewildered by marvel

Yet scorching was the heat

Unlike  past years

Cause global warming was high

The sand that swept my face

Told me the tales

Touching the sculptures

Witnessing the past

Living the experience of mankind

Scorching was the heat

Burning was the land

Under the vast sky

Me resting with my dreams beside

              I love the structure. The closing is amazing also, to think, the heat could consume all of our dreams, and that is so very true. More often than we care to realise. Nice one, fellow writer!

                There is a long and winding road that few other than poets dare to tread .. You have clearly demonstrated here that your journey began some time ago and you are well on your way .. Bravo Spills ........................ Neville

                  Thanks Neville…the journey became too long but it appeared that every step needs to be cherished and enjoyed…I am learning and unlearning to do the same…
