Eerie Shadows

• 

Dark shadows in the wind ~ haunting in the breeze

The night in disguise ~ creeping in black chemise

Shadows dance until morning ~ then dance with the sun

 Thunder and lightning ~ play in the rain like a drum

Grey wolves howl at the moon ~ and the night stalks again

Whispers in the darkness ~ are voices of legends when

 Eyes scope the night ~ behind moonlight they embark

But whose eyes are they in the eeriness of the dark?

thank you dear...glad you love it:)

[jacob erin-cilberto]

for some the images and sounds you create here might be scary/eerie...to me they are romantic...

it is the sound of nature, of the wolves mating of the night mating with nature..

i love this.

i am there in your scene, listening.

I am saving it in my library to read at leisure

Something different....But the moon is always there.By your brilliant and very apt phrases you create the mood of the poem .....eerie.You have moved away from romantic writes to try something different and have done equal justice..........Enjoyed reading this poem as much......

[SyberRose]

thank you Onku...I still write romance haa...haven't moved away totally...glad you liked this one:)

[Ency Bearis]

Eerie but nice flow to read with the rhyme scheme. With that eye creepy it seems.

[SyberRose]

haa...thank you Ency... yes the creepy eye...:)

Lovely images well structured. I read this and was transported to a mysterious lover - in disguise, creeping in the black chemise, a love hidden at night but unknown and perhaps unknowable. ah, the secrets of the night.

[SyberRose]

Thank you Steve...A wonderful interpretation of the poem...glad you enjoyed...Rose

[Soma-ko]

An enticing flow as the poem progress, both verbally and rhythmically. Another great job, and much enjoyed.

[SyberRose]

thank you for catching up on my poems...glad you liked this piece Soma...:)

[Soma-ko]

Why of course. WC doesn't email me whenever someone sends me a read request, and I haven't been on for awhile (working on a little story, and playing around). SO when I went back on and saw the request you sent, it was only natural of me to read them. :)

[SyberRose]

Good luck with your story...i'm sure it will be great...:)

[Soma-ko]

Haha, thank you. :)
