THE WAR

Riddles in the Dark

Proverbs walks in shadows deep
With secrets close, and words to keep
His hand on hearts that slowly creep
Through silent rooms where mourners weep

A doctor’s coat, a mystic’s eye
He speaks of truths that never die

Oh, he that loves and leaves aloune
Finds only silence, wood and stoune
A heart that echoes, hollow throune
He that loveth his own, goued on his own

Coughs that bloom like gardens, wild
He murmurs low with wisdom mild
A sparrow-heart must seek the aisle
Or lose its beat to shadows’ guile

His voice like riddles, faint and thin
An ancient grief, a hidden sin

Oh, he that loves and leaves aloune
Finds only silence, wood and stoune
A heart that echoes, hollow throune
He that loveth his own, goued on his own

Blood runs thin as rivers do,
Find your banks or drown in blue
Proverb’s eyes, a shadowed hue
Speak truths we wish we never knew

Gone to places lost and strange
With love’s own hand, he feels the change

Oh, he that loves and leaves aloune
Finds only silence, wood and stoune
A heart that echoes, hollow throune
He that loveth his own, goued on his own

A doctor’s guise, a preacher’s call
In hospital halls where shadows fall
Proverb’s words, a solemn pall
Each stitch we sew removes the thrall

In darkness deep, his spirit roams
Through thoughts like leaves in unknown-

Oh, he that loves and leaves aloune
Finds only silence, wood and stoune
A heart that echoes, hollow throune
He that loveth his own, goued on his own

In hollow halls, his wisdom's drone
Proverb walks his path alone
