ON FAVOURS TRODDEN

The softest scent of timid moments glum

brief reflection of their modest bouquet

blot gentile but never cumbersome

ripen sensitively sellucid grey,

Melancholy like a feather rises

crusted, tarred, soiled phantom curse cloying

senses approaching with no guises

thine temporary stupor enjoying - !

Wanton ivy roots at the bolsoid stone

shielded slips of wistful acrid flavour

resist to mutter thine faded atone

sweeter florals one morose could savour,

For they nod - swaying with a gentle curve

forsaking the strife of your crude unnerve.
