The song of a flower

There is no sky no sand,
only darkness where i stand,
why was i put on this wretched land?
i see only darkness where i point my green hand.

i am a flower with a hundred thorns,
for every thorn did teach me far,
wider than world, wider than thought,
i am but a flower, i could not reach far.

my days will surely come to an end,
maybe sooner than i wish or intend,
before i pass a message i must send,
as you trust yourself, trust your friend.

i learnt it in all hard ways around,
i did have a friend, no more around,
the loss is too hard i found,
heed my words before i too go into the ground.

The little flower did then rest,
from its song, a message learnt best.....

The lost lark

On a lonely starless night,
a lark sang sweeter than ever,
above the mist!oh shiny veil,
of clouds up higher and higher.

He flew above the barren trees,
adown the trees the barren land,
he flew singing 'oh night no breeze',
he thought someone would hear.

He sang aloud and flew up higher,
till he had no strength to reach further,
for drought and cold the mighty flier,
had been forced to retire.

But somewhere above he heard,
the beautiful song of a fellow lark,
all world so far so hard,
meant nothing to him whatsoever.

He gathered up and took off flight,
to reach the waiting singer,
They flew together to reach the bright land,
where they would find the others.

valley of clouds..

The valley down a thousand hills,
to where the gleaming water flows.
With the shadow of the snow clad mountains ,
set upon the valley of clouds below.

Mysteries of here, so long ago,
a thousand years since,
The valley bore home to many,
but also the Phantom Prince.

The silent battle went unnoticed,
for the valley held no surviver,
men and here were long gone,
but the phantom prince did never.

The mystery that the valley bears,
has always been a wonder,
as the valley remains the soul witness,
to the noble princes' murder.

The phantom prince in his shadow horse,
did never leave the valley,
for the land truthfully his,
was captured in an unfair tally.

The cloud that set upon here,
during the treacherous murder,
has never since left the place
and hence the valley of clouds got named after.
