Shade
A Poem for Halloween
Look closely and you will see
The shadow of its sorrow
Long and grossly misshapened
The shadow of its sorrow
Long and grossly misshapened
Slipping inconspicuous
From vacant hearts and hollows
Then folding back to darkness

Post a CommentVery eerie - poem and pic. Remember a soalr eclipse in the UK. All the birds stopped singing instantly when the eclipse came.
This one really gets the imagination working. Great piece for Halloween!
"From vacant hearts and hollows"- an interesting Halloween poem indeed, a bit melancholic but wonderfully written. I especially love the picture...its pretty awesome!
Eerie and haunting though enlightening at the same time....I choose many concepts rather than one....keep the eyes fully open.
As a Christian, I must say that no spirit has to " fold back to darkness." Such a melancoly poem.
Wonderful bit of mythos here. Gives shade and shadow deeper meaning. Great pictures too.
the accompanying pic is eerie....very good poem, takes you into another realm...
Interesting poem.
