Drifting Whispers ...

   
Drifting yes we all drifting in meaning,  
In the hushwhirl of the gloamnest deep,  
Where solshivers dance and soft dreams keep,  
A thistledrift of thoughts takes flight,  
Beneath the gentle lunebloom night.  
   
Starbreath hums in the dewy air,  
A mournkiss lingers light, yet rare.  
Echolure calls from misted past,  
While velvifade shadows slip so fast.  
   
Frostwhim stirs in autumn’s glow,  
Driftember leaves begin to flow.  
Through wistgrove halls where echoes stray,  
Mistril sighs and fades away.  
   
Yet in the dawn, a dewhymn pure,  
Lingers softa sighnure sure.
