Scarecrow in tatters
'Quoth the raven'   "Nevermore"

Haunting and brooding. Loved the Edgar Allan Poe overtones! Creepy - yet, oh so much fun to read! Wishing you and your loved ones Happy Holidays. Peace always, John

Very clever use of the Poe quote... I like 'bare/scarecrow' and the long 'o' assonance. Well done! Keith
