Sullen Silence

A sullen silence

I watch the trees move slowly in the calm afternoon

I watch the grayness sift through the air

A calm stillness that makes me sit and stare

But my mind wanders in sullen silence to a place far away

I think of my friend I saw another day

I hope it won't be long but that I'll see you again soon

But now I sit and ponder

In a sullen silence.
