After-dark aria's shattering silence of night a drowned mockingbird perched in shrouded branches pecking in your head He carries weeping willow memories burnt to stub lanes of forest trees curiously inflamed in sun mysterious at night violet waves frosting leaves His ethereal trill like a haunted snowflake tiptoes frigid air both wings fractured in maze of mirrors now he serenades night silencing crickets full moon inspired 24 hours a day spring to summer clarifying his voice He remembers being tested by demonic shrieks each black shrill holding him underwater a delicate noun forced to eat verbs nobody knew what he survived He returned years later after silence stole his voice perched half slain on a broken oak branch his frail voice full of gurgling river water and broken stones He never knew if his song could escape the cage- his scarred voice steadily becoming stronger inspiration hunted by moonlit ribbons frosting hope back into clear violet vision fractures of shadow lingering for wise reminders.

Violet Waves Frosting Leaves
