Won't you help support DayPoems? The Twelfth Of NeverBy Richard Thomas Cummings21st CenturyThe bashful man, With his words unspoken, Darts his eyes Towards the leisures of life. He sees walls filled with skies And muralistic faces, broken; Within a world's endless span--- To a ship's sailing grief. Rage against the relentless Tempest Of pulsating time, and beating life; Upon the winds as if a leaf, Falling too far from the crumpled nest. Withdrawing life, his Heart's sacrifice--- Becoming the pain's relief Amid the never coming of tomorrow, Where he will speak his mind's confess. They were old and gray, his eyes: Deep with insight and sorrow; As the vines of his soul would grow, Outreaching his untold story. Atop the silent peak Of jagged, angelic snow; The aged man only seeks An embracing cold, to warm his death. DayPoems Poem No. 2763 Comment on DayPoems?
