Moonlit

it might be hard to understand, but it's just a poem about the mystification of the moonlight. How strange, and mysterious, yet pleasing it is. The moonlight when shrouded is what we yearn for...etc..

A ray of moonlight vanishes hidden by the darkened clouds above
All which is left is the lingering feeling
The tingling, and happiness felt before the darkened skies emerged
After images are reflected on the surface of the faces that were once...

No more...the cries, and screams of those who seek the light that has faded; as they listen to the soulful moon play its wayward rhythm
Pitter-Pat, Pitter-Pat, Pitter...
The light tapping continues on
Pitter-Pat, Pitter-Pat, Pitter...

Halted, stopped, frozen, immobilized by the sounds the faces turn
They turn to see children, hitting on walls
The children once taken in by the light and held within its warmth cry for it
The faces begin to rumble, begin to roar, they pound, hit, stomp, make noise

Emotion, now we see...emotion
The faces that were once, now become the faces of the now
Happiness and delight is poured out from the people
The small "Pitter-Patters" now turned to loud cries and banging

A ray of moonlight peeps through the darkened clouds lighting a way up towards the sky providing a path
All which was dark, is now light
The children smile as they are embraced around its Rays of comfort

Such things only occur in dreams
The dreams of one who has seen through to the true intentions of their beholder
A figment of ones imagination if you will
A ray of moonlight shrouded the people, as they became mystified with their dreams
Seeking out the true meaning of the moonlight...

Mysterious. That word was my first thought when reading throughout the poem.

Very nice, I love the style. Nice use of sensory imagery, it clearly helped to paint me a picture haha!
I also like the subtle, dark feel to it since it's very similar to my own liking.

This is your first poem here? Good start, since most people sometimes ignore grammar.

Anyway, good job! I do want to see more from you. -Number Six
