Shadows Lurk

In dankest corners danger lurks, unseen to human eye hide creatures from the realms of hell where none can ever die. For demons of the lowest plain cannot a body wear for they’re destined to feed the pit with those lost to despair. These demons lurking all around seek food for torment’s fire, there’s no escaping if they smell a soul they can acquire. They drain the essence of your life if you approach their lair, the only warning you may get is prickling of your hair. By then I fear it is too late incarcerating souls they drag them screaming through the gates that lead to Satan’s holes. So tread in fear when pathways feel uneasy, not quite right, for all is lost when being stalked by shadows of the night. Ivor G Davies

Long time no hear from Ivor! Reading your poems brought back the fact that you are likely the best poet in modern times...How long these times will be "modern" is hard to say....but I once again enjoyed...Bought your book some time back and it's wonderful. Hope all is well your way...best always, Judy

Judy, thanks for the comments, I will try to post here a bit more often, but being retired now I do not seem to have free time anymore? I don't know how I ever had the time to work! Thanks again....Ivor
