Uncanny
From the expanse, I was seeing her.
She was visible for some time and suddenly disappeared.
A lady with a veil and long hair was waving in the air.
The Moon came out from the clouds and she disappeared.
As long as I could see,
there was none but me;
With foxes cries from the bushes near
and the essence of the lady, who was disappeared.
The Moon was soon covered by passing cloud,
something eerie shouted out loud;
A flash of lightning sparked from very near,
a spine chilled air, and she again appeared.
Her eyes were flashing as soon as her face revealed,
with a spectral smile, by which no pain could ever heal!
An ominous voice whispered and took away all the courage I had earned
by saying into my ear that "now it's your turn".
