Poem
Walking lonely through the dark
In the night time I did embark
Upon a mission to clear my mind
Answer to questions I wish to find

I walk onward through quiet streets
My footstep noises aloud repeats
As I approach in the nightly dark
To my destination, the local park

Though its shady tree lined lanes
My mind wonders stressed and strained
And as my boot falls echo gently
My minds progresses differently

It swirls and curls and rages on
All concentration is withdrawn
To solve the riddle in my mind
To the key I’m currently blind

As I progress across the grass
My shoulder acquires a new mass
A crow there sits as black as night
Fixing me with its beady sight

I jump and start and this intrusion 
Causing a stumble and contusion
But the crow it seems wants to stay
So my shoulder its weight will weigh

So as I return to my cogitation 
This crow proved an aberration 
It speak with a voice all gruff
And a manner that was quite bluff

It said in its own raucous way
That I was being rather fey
To let this matter of heart intrude
And drag so long with no conclude

I tried to shoo this troubling bird
Finding its gruff advice absurd
Who is this thing to offer opinion?
Surely it is the devils minion

The avian conscience would not loose 
Just offer more words of seeming abuse
Telling me to lay this love to rest 
That in this matter its advice is best 

Failure to remove this nasty creature
Caused me to ignore the feathery preacher
I thus returned to my deliberation
Trying to recover my old elation

But my new friend continued to tell
That I was the cause of my personal hell
Thus he proceeded until at my door
When he return to his home once more

That night my sleep was trouble and light
With the voice of the crow ever a blight
His words slowly sunk into my brain
The gruffness was gone but the sense was plain

I awoke from my dream with clear mind,
Wondering why I had been so blind
I have been living in a world gone by
Missing the wonders of a sunny July

I thank that crow so noble and black
For finding my life and giving it back
I now move forward into the light
I will no longer walk alone in the night
