    Melancholy Mists
    I gaze at pregnant clouds outside my window
    Overcast to match my inner darkness
    Wind howls through trees like sadness through my soul
    Melancholy mists cloak me in their soft caress.

    Raindrops like chandelier prisms
    Illusive rainbows reflect off crystal panes
    Lazy daydreams of drifting recollections
    Water color tapestries of tie dyed stains.

    What went before cannot be changed
    Dust motes dancing on stagnant air
    Aspiration surrendered to forgotten needs
    A past littered with dreams stripped bare.

    A sad reflection yet beautifully written verses.

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
