Nightly Whisper/ Nächtliches Geflüster/ Susurro De Noche

Trough nightly whisper A pale moon hides behind clouds With dancing shadows A far murmur from the woods Soothing gurgle from the creek ----------------------------------------- Nächtliches Flüstern Ein fahler Mond hinter Wolken Mit tanzenden Schatten Ein fernes Murmeln vom Wald Ein sanftes Gluckern vom Bach ----------------------------------------- Susurro Nocturno Pálida luna detrás nubes Sombras bailando Murmullo lejano del bosque Suave borboteo de ribera

It always seems eerie when the moon is hiding behind clouds. You could have written this about Halloween -- it has a somewhat spooky quality to it, Gert. Love, Carolyn

Loved the way you described the night here, Gert. I love the idea of the shadows 'dancing' . Emilia

Gert, this poem is really moving, touches the reality image of the skies at night. ANd all the little things you can hear at night. ,, I wonder now if clouds make a sound when they are hiding the moon. Enjoyed your poem,..p.d.
