Mysterious Night

Flames of lust Silence to inhale The primitive beast The precious angels Stay concealed In mysterious nights Of dark and lights Whether you will grow tall To be with the Orion Or will fall Among the tiger and lion That dictates the mysterious night With its fair and foul That hover over and prowl In your milieu Deep inside you Well, you mysterious night No need of your dark lantern Inside the dark cavern I need to read the letters As they get unfettered Under your charming starlight For the sake of my poems Whatever that be Ultimately Down to a Haiku To say to your white smile In the face of the dark night I love you The moon sinks In water of the Ganges river It is future like black dark Savage and stark With two burning bright Searchlights The owl Scans under the solo starlight For a white cat I look inside At the old owl Can black night Bring out a white cat Who knows The night is always mysterious _______________________________ August 8, 2017 Note:Narrowly missed the contest of this name By Nayda Ivette Negron

Your poem has a shroud of mystery about it, too. Sorry you missed the contest - but this is a winner already.
