THE HAUNTED CLIFFS
By Eris Goff.
Linwood, Kansas
There is no sound to break the
silence, save
The moody whisper of Lunada
Bay.
Where waters of the fcue Pacific
lave
The cliffs of Paos Verdes night
and day.
Here ghostly laughter mingles
with the sea.
Blue eyes like candle flame
against the wind
And arms that clasp me like a
pulsing wave . . .
The swirling mists have brot
you back to me.
The sharp salt air cuts deep into
our hearts
Much like the passage of an
unsheathed blade
That turns afresh in wounds
that death imparts;
And when your protoplastic
form must fade
When arrowed spray shall quiv
er in Dawn’s face
Above the brooding waters of
the Bay—
When from its breast a flood of
crimson starts,
Still in the wind’s caress your
your lips I trace.
