A Night of _______

Contributed by huey on Sunday, 18th August 2002 @ 03:20:03 PM in AEST
Topic: MiscPoems

The misty clouds slithered across the darkened sky
And crooked arrow of light shot forth from the heavens to the earth
The tiny liquid droplets made every single light shine like a star
As the stars were afraid to show lest they get vacuumed into the darkness ever-growing
On this night, shackled, the Moon struggled against her serpentine chains
Her silver rays unable to pierce through the night yet she continued her vain effort
An agonizing hazy glow managed to appear yet it casted wicked shadows upon the world
Below, the willows wilted into fatigue, her many arms gently tickling the water's surface
The roaring river itself had been transformed into a trickling stream
It merely whispered now what before was a strange melody of life
The whirling wisps of wind worked with the spirit of sleep
To cool my heart and mind to succumb to its magic spell
A shadow casted over my soul, a shudder echoed through my body
No longer was the wafting scent of the red, red roses aromatherapy, now it was a sedative
No longer was the grass bent to my will, its will now supporting mine
Sleep's mystifying magic now working its charm...I closely grow ignorant of this scene
Yet the last thing I see...The Heavenly Moon is yet free once more to banish darkness from this night

Very nice, a fine write. I think the word is restless dreams.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time. Please report poetry and or comments that are in breach of our site rules HERE (Please include poem title or url). Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
