Without Consolation

Ghazal 1

Without Consolation

Joy once evoked by memory
Now revoked by memory
Once bound together in bliss
Now only yoked in memory
My spirit rows an empty boat
Soaked by stormy memory
My heart breaks a slow beat
Stroked on the snares of memory
Michael, without love’s grace
Cloaked only in memory

Mike O’Leary - April 2016
