Love Sonnet XIII

.... be careful of the ghouls..

Love Sonnet XIII

 

 

October rules the season where

a full moon shines upon

brooms flying, as ghosts and ghouls

emerge from their sleep to

 

roam through lonely streets.

It reminds me of how sparks

arc from your fingertips

raising goosebumps on my skin and,

 

racing my heart to the beat

of Autumn’s wind scurrying

leaves, this way, and that.

 

My love, your crisp air beauty

ignites my primordial nature,

in the season of the Witch.

This poem captures the essence of October as a mystical and transformative time, emphasizing the connection between love and the enchanting qualities of the season.

Another very well written poem... ❤ You are to good with writing these.

Words like "ghosts," "ghouls," "sparks," "goosebumps," and "primordial" contribute to a mystical and romantic tone. The juxtaposition of the supernatural with intimate feelings enhances the emotional depth of your poem.

Thanks for sharing this one too...

Amy, what a wonderful review!! Thank you for the enchantment!!

Oh, be careful out there, wear some garlic around your neck, don't look too deeply in the shadows, and most importantly, never ever walk alone.

Thanks for your visit!!!

no worries Jacob, I got your back. In fact we have been invited to a 'safe house' (castle actually) for a party and some poetic fun. There's this Count that owns this place and he assures me that not only will we be safe, but we will rule the night!! Sounds like fun, dancing to "Witchy Woman", "Season of the Witch", "Thriller", and of course "Monster Mash".

Thanks Jacob for the comment and visit
