DAME OF ECHOES:



Dame of echoes,
How gently, she plays with the voices of the dead,
How softly toying with words, all within the head,
 Sinister her teardrops, dripping at midnight hour,
Insistent her tolling, of bell from old church tower.

Dame of echoes,
Her voice in the echoing, of memories dead & gone,
Her touch in shadows, where sunshine long once shone,
Her breath, within cleavage of the mountains in the sky,
Her words left unsaid, upon dead tongues of lover´s sigh.

Dame of echoes,
I hear her footsteps, through life´s corridors & long halls,
Upon past winds, she sings with orchestras of dead balls,
Whisperings of childhood & dreams that should have been,
Dancing through my head, & heard, rather than be seen.
