Written: September 21, 2023 Shadows Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Regina McIntosh ___________________________________________________________ Shadows roamed free Where inspiration whispered Eviscerate the nebulous nexus of dreams Find your niche in the unseen Impalpable, deep, spatial, serene Shadows lurched seraphically Their slender limbs are in clear space. In corners, they danced and played A life metaphor in their opaque hoax Inveigle in the shadows Grim and gaunt, they enchanted A kismet union amid shadows The moon's grin inspires delight A love song entwined two spirits Compiling through the night A subtle whisper symphony Star-struck lovers meet overnight Together, they dance under the moon Aligning hearts erased tears This celestial ballroom ignites love Ghostly silhouettes caterwaul Predicting the futile collapse Clangor and penumbra persist Cosmological contempt They wear thick gossamer makeup Corpulent umbra, unfair cover Shaded depths becloud Crestfallen, they seek a shroud Find shelter with shades and phantoms Their spirit was freed in the darkness Eternal whispers In the dusk shadows extend within moments. Dramatic dance that steals time They weave magic in a whisper concert With lightness, silence the breath Gentle fall, evoking angel feathers Weary earth fighters find peace Its loving hug provides relief Rustic tunes, deep insights.
