Blackened Silhouettes Fill the Skies

Blackened Silhouettes Fill The Skies ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Blackened silhouettes fill the skies, freckles. The setting sun blocked by bats, in millions! Hairs on my dogs back stood up, his heckles. The black silhouetted bats, amazing! Bats' freckles, natures vaudevillians! New lands tonight, instinctive trailblazing, they know this night certain bugs fly, mating, yes procreating in untold billions! Moon, now up, bats fed, have babies waiting. In how many caves, babe bats' in trillions! Rhyme Time 4- 10 Lines Poetry Contest - Sponsored by Laura Loo 06/08/18
