Raven's Dark Dream

She lay down and began to dream of death. She felt the demon of soul's very hot breath. Her crown of beauty was black as the night. The demon of souls was her deepest fright. Standing there with a gun in her hand. Wondering how she got to this dead land. Tombstones buried in the smoking ground. In the sky flying buzzards all around. When she awoke from her dream she was scared. Cause she didn't just dream she had a nightmare. Teresa Skyles Entered in ~A rambling poet~Among the dead contest.

I had only read a couple of the poems and wanted so badly to enter but...too many things were going on and didn't get to. I knew Constance would have a time selecting her winners. There is a long list of winners here. You should be so proud of your winning poem congratulations Teresa. Love, Carol
