Grapevine silence.

The grapevines have never been so silent,

but it is not the oil, or changing climate.

To hear its word, you must now be beside it.

 

Their messages once sung loud, merrily with joy,

but now go unheard by most girl and boy.

 

The words that find a way to meet our ears,

have never been so full of hopelessness and fears.

The grapevines eyes swell with tears.

 

It seems the grapevine would no longer like to share,

for the words they are sharing have lost the love and care.

The abundant grapevine forest,

now but a desert bare.

 

After all of the rumors have come to cease,

the grapevines sleep tonight in peace.

Together waiting for sun of tomorrows dawn,

they pray for new coming souls to bestow whispers upon.

Holding on to hope that new messages will spawn,

and lead to beautiful pictures being drawn.
