Darkness

Dark

                                                 Pervades

                                              Silence rules

                                           Curtains of clouds

                                        Hide and seek unfolds

                                            Moaning of wind

                                             Owl's eyes flash

                                                Fright fills

                                                  Gloom

                        

                                               Placed: 1st

This poem would be perfect for Halloween. It is my favorite holiday because my three children used to celebrate their birthdays on that day. They are all born in the first week of November. Congratulations on your wonderful win. Blessings xxoo
