Day 15 of #NaPoWriMo#GloPoWriMotwitter.com/StampsBot I found a beautiful 2c stamp with roses on it to inspire the following poem

Poem title: abandonment Poem follows: webs cover all that can be seen as dust travels in the air once lamps were lit, yellow candle light shone only the full moon can now break the dark with beams of light passing through the boarded windows the clock sits silent, with voice forgotten years have passed since life graced these halls the desk hasn’t been sat at with mail piled up envelopes unopened stamps with bright roses and currency no longer circulated beautiful penmanship fading into yellowing paper books filling with mould in the damp Spring unread for generations knowledge now lost as words crumble to dust a floating spectre passes through walls recounting a story no longer told their feet don’t touch the floorboards no creak breaks the silence if only a black hole could eat the remains and end the pain of abandonment
A stamp with red border and two bright, red roses, and one yet to open The text says the artist is "Lilli Marlene", and it is a New Zealand 2c stamp - which has not been in circulation for more than 30 years
