Forgotten Life
One house stood in contrast
Behind Gothic points of iron
wild flower and Celtic vine
mossy violet path through time
colored bottles in the window
kaleidoscope sunshine filters in
dusty velvet with beaded fringe
carpet palms of color bloom
incense drifts about the room
a piano waits in coiled spring
the fingers with the magic ring
grafitied walls up curving stair
hieroglyphics churn in air
past a curious tattooed cat
keeping secrets in a hat
echos in the hallway mirror
some mystic music brought you here
opening the bedroom door
scaring pigeons from the floor
draped with lace and cobweb
an empty brass and feather bed
you lie down and start to dream
