Illusions

Dark Poetry

 Hazy moonlight stretched across the night sky
as I gazed from my window at a starless night
I percieved visions~ myself a stone illusion
and gloom fell heavy 'pon my heart and soul
an illumation in grayish blue tone of rigor light
like none of which I've seen before
yet facination overwhelmed me
as zig-zagged shadows danced in confusion
across my darken bedroom floor
'Oh, what fate would befall me, no clue had I
Nor could I fathom what evil shadows had taken control
On this eve of dark December,strange illusions danced free
 at the stroke of midnight plus one hour more

"at the stroke of midnight plus one hour more"

there is something so very haunting about this line at the end of this poem. the imagery you employed in this one is stunning, fran. can you tell me how you are managing to embed the graphics? i am having difficulty doing it...and they do add a special touch. especially the line "in greyish-blue tone of rigor light" seemed to stand out because of the colors in the graphic. i enjoyed this one so much. lydia
