Elsewhere Tableau

It’s the Saturday Mix – Lucky Dip over at MLMM! This week we’ll be crafting a Tableau. Any topic. A tableau consists of one or more verses, each having six lines. Each line should have five beats. There is no set rhyme scheme, although rhyme may be present. The title should contain the word tableau.

Veil of twilight falls

like it always has.

The stars still appear

twinkling bright silver

and as if nothing

in this world had changed.

But how can this be?

Even birds still sing.

How can they not know

that you aren’t here, but

forever elsewhere?

Yet, daisies still bloom.
