Robert Johnson Poet Verse

Communing With the Night

A flame among the heavens.
Burning midnight sky.
Afterwards, in the burnt ashes.
Are where the flames now lie.

We've had our little visit.
Communing with the night.
Showing all the universe.
Inner earthly light.

For Nette's contest, shine with your Naani.

Andrea Dietrich June 24, 2014 at 3:34 PM very nice one for her contest, Robert. It's a good contest,don't you think? Change "lye" to "lie" in case she is looking at your spelling. Robert Johnson June 24, 2014 at 6:32 PM Thanks for the heads up on lie. And yes, the meter is kind of interesting.
