Haunted Poet's Society Continued

With shivers cold upon the hill Words chill my heart much colder still With tempest howls or'e chimney tops Such howling sounds forgiving not Angry screams and threatening shouts The poet's wrath..he cries he pouts He gnashes teeth without his pen With wailing words he can't begin The slumbers chain has been forsaken By day his story will not awaken Who can I choose to heed the call For saving fate of poets all? Too swift upon the shadow lies We need your help or VERSE WILL DIE ! Please poet guest, Miss Guzzi's best will save the night.., in this contest! Continued from James Goff/John Loving lll

Awesome "haunted poets" poem, Carrie. I kept thinking of Edgar Allen Poe's mind slipping away as he experienced angst and endured noises in the night while writing "The Raven." Excellent work! This game sure is fun, isn't it? Love, Carolyn
