This poem was written at the same time I wrote Samhain Prayer. I was in quite the "halloween" mood back then. At any rate, it was meant to be a comic relief type poem. *Grins lightly* I hope ye all like it.
Halloween Lament
It was dark,
dogs did bark,
as I crept on down the lane.
Winter's chill,
what a thrill,
frozen fingers feel no pain.
Sneaking now,
don't know how,
I shall get back home again.
Up ahead,
trees look dead,
is this to be my bane?
All goes quiet,
heart's a-riot,
my attention goes in vain.
Hands are shaking,
knees are quaking,
internal fear I do not feign.
One step back,
courage I lack,
this, much to my disdain.
Then the ghost,
came forth to host,
voice like thunder, eyes like rain.
What to do?
I ran....no, flew!
My mind no longer sane!
