Gentle Ghosts

Dreams, 

Fragile beauty of the mind 

Sky-colours that slip between the sheets 

And paint the night with memories 

Gentle ghosts, they are 

That live within 

And wait for night to emerge 

From the frosts of day

Sounds like the first frost of winter somewhere at the end of October Where the leaves have left the trees and the frost is on the Pumpkin and a ghostly Night ahead.

Very beautiful imagery you have here. You give a personality to dreams which is something unique and quite profound. Every line matters to the poem, and gives its own unique insight. I feel like dreams are something everyone likes to cover in their writing, but again you do it in a unique way. Very, very well done. ~Never Forget

I like the comparison of dreams to gentle ghosts.

Hey thanks for your review, i don't really think it's dark but it's open to interpretation!

Dark, with a good dose of eerie, particularly "that live within and wait for the night to emerge". I like the idea of gentle ghosts, something not to be feared but admired in coexistence. Good to read another dark writer and I loved the bio :) Penny
