http://slow.writerscafe.org/sadie0001 The original writings of author Sadie en-us Copyright 2026 WritersCafe.org 1775991245 WritersCafe.org RSS Generator 15 A piece of prose http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/sadie0001/1895880/ Droplets rest on steamy panesTo view people without namesStark, cold colours from nature's handNumb plants and trees across the landA blanket of sky that gives no warmthTo the shivering bodies forming swarmsNeedling their way so hurriedlyWho vanish from frame. Quietly. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/sadie0001/1878261/ Unseen, unheard and buried so deeplyA pearl in the earth unrevealedSilence emerging, so pure and completelyas each whisper and sound is sealed http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/sadie0001/1877146/ The fading light of evening comesAnd seeps through every creviceIt casts warm shadows in cold roomsAnd enters without noticeDusky rays of dimming lightPrecede the night descendingThen stillness comes announcingThat the sleeping day is ending. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/sadie0001/1875536/ Oh icy winds that blow and blastThrough arteries of the cityYou hasten steps of hurried folkOn whom you have no pity http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/sadie0001/1875075/ In this short poem, I have tried to personify the year 2016 as a monster and the ending of the poem heralds the new year and hope. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/sadie0001/1868945/
