An Inkling of Poetry: Black Leaf

A ripple in the stillness of Time A change from blue to purple in Clime The lady but raised a tiny eye brow And spoke sages of tomorrow Know ye the Labyrinthine acronym That spells the seeds of him She who but makes haste in noon In the light of the Sun's high loop Will see Time ride to it's rest Having passed it's utmost Crest Know ye the aftermath and the before hand Know ye the Solomon's counsel and norm How time never stands But rolls in an infinite continuum
