thriveni c mysore Poet Free verse

Ghost of Black Forest

Deep in Black Forest
lives a good-natured ghost
whose eyes are like Nebula
a blurry blue

He Slithers along
steeply falling terrain
where ravine-like dark valley
drops deadly low

Every Lunar night
near Cascading waters
He camps to sing by the grave
of his lost girl

Serpentine river
dragging along cold air
gushes forth Myriad rifts
roars with the ghost

All through the white night
he wails, whispers with Lilt
at dawn he disappears with
Phosphorous smile
