Good Afternoon To all

MORE POEMS

So long it’s been

So many months of secrets
Betraying and the lies
So long we’ve sat in shadows
Trying so hard to hide

For longer than expected
Yet shorter than desired
We were able to keep it secret
But for us the time expired

They whispered and they plotted
And then they heard the scream
They followed the snowy footprints
That led them to our stream

I thought I saw them move
A tree branch start to shudder
But I just ignored it
Just the wind which made it flutter
