Meadow's Moonlight

Swaying grasses taunt the meadow Egged on by a chilling breeze Silently the stealth of an owl Toys with the shimmering moonlight As dark wings dance across her face Grey wolves lurk amid the cold stones A tinge of fall on the meadow Final cut will start at daybreak The loud smell of diesel’s warning Alerts the meadow’s populace The meadow’s moonlight did not lie

Very beautiful poem, even if some wolves are jealous! I loved the last line.

A beautiful meadow invaded by man's invention, this poem describes the opening of the West. It is timeless. I enjoy.

Owls... the nocturnal birds always arouse my curiosity. I wonder why they don't prey in day light ! The meadow and the owl stand out in your poem. Well composed, dear John.
