Through time's ghosts, a ghost town.

Through time's ghosts, a ghost town.

A Poem by andrew mitchell

Through the avenues of time
walls crumbling in decay
house the memories fading
that flickers weak light
in remembrance.

Hearing the wind of life howl
rattling rusty thoughts
that held life's pages
the hands that delivered
break the promise,
letting go...

while a beacon scans
over cemetery grounds
waves caress the rocks
in waiting.

You are welcome king Mitchell. You are so kind.
this is amazing....like an old ship moored to a dock that is no longer used...
i can hear the waves beating against the hull...

you got me there, andrew.
