For Shadow

She stands high atop the hill
under the starlit sky
Staring the gleaming silver moon
directly in the eye.

Unfurling her arms to the heavens,
summons the power deep within herself, 
lightning bolts shoot out of her fingertips
sparks fly out of each strand
of long brown hair,
arcing in the night sky.

Hears the rumble and the roar
of the thunderous damning,
dark, spinning clouds
fast approaching -
laughs at the mayhem brought forth.

Drenched by tears of the heavens,
Sodden, enraptured
Soul captured.

Musings on the Death of Pets

Mayhem and death abound-
the little furry souls are found
buried in the cold,cold ground-
just outside the death bell sound.

DAY IS OVER

the moonlight cold and dreary
the smouldering souls quiet weary
quick sand pull me down
never to be found
hellish howling
grim and scowling
run for cover
day is over

Ponder the Vast Lonely Expanse

ponders the vast lonely expanse
the dark and forbidding manse
the wolf it howl at the moon
the night enshrouded in gloom

the night filled with screams
and nightmare dreams
tugs at my heart
tear us apart

fall to my knees
begging you please
rain on my face
alone in this place

sunshine not welcome
night sky appear
thunder still rumble
the night sky i fear

fantasy 
phantom
terror
random

As I Lean On My Headstone

the night is dark, 
my skin touch cold
the headstone graven
draped in mold

stare i haunted
at my past
life it wither
did not last

festoon with cobwebs
shimmer me
soul is blackened
inside of me
