Disappearing Words

Mumble, mumble alls a grumble

as the words pour out.

Little wings they pop and spread

a b c's are flying about.


Without a sound

poof they disappear.

I look and I search

but they fall on deaf ears.


Chitter, chitter and some chatter

foreign words you form.

Round and round

into a clattering noisy storm.


My words are gone

my thoughts are bare.

Melancholy swept her hand

her secrets ready to share.


The vessel of my soul

is rancid and cold.

As words turn to placid green

they take on a stronger hold.
