Skinned Nature


Midnight

Strikes the daylight

While the trees

Choose to dance

Or stay still

Against

Pale grass

That sways 

By action

Not thought

On steady

Earth

Trampled along

The ages

Unnoticed

Disregarded

By a shy

Sky

That blooms

When told

And shields 

To hold what's

Hidden

By the unknown 

Above 

Who dies 

For more

Beginnings 

In the

Gentle unfeeling

World
