Call to Thought

 

Distant voices

Haunted thought

Happiness fades

Innocence is sought

 

Light of the candle

Heat of the flame

Keeper of my heart

My soul yours to tame

 

Whisper of the wind

Calls out its tale

Dogs of the night

Let out their lonely wail

 

Time has no limit

Silence rules

The world…

Chosen this one from your collection at random. A really good piece of work.
Just a little concerned about the Keeper of my . . . (the two lines) I feel that this introduces another human party into it; this reduces the poem's universality and so makes us, the readers, outsiders rather than sharers. It is hard to think that the poet is talking to some Geatic presence. Sharers are what we are in all of the rest of the poem except for these two lines. Perhaps keeper et. should form another sort of poem?
Some might argue that it introduces a romantic element into an otherwise existential poem. (That is quicker)
Just a thought.
Any Haiku lying around?

Wow what a verbal whirlwind of emotions in such few words... just like how we can go from feeling love to being lonely back to loved.

Again you use words to the fullest degree and meaning .. yet, you're an expert in word selection. That skill means your words flow really gently and smoothly.

' Whisper of the wind ~ Calls out its tale' ... we can each read what we want from that, small picture or great masterpiece.'

Thank you so much for sharing ..
