Nette Onclaud Poet Jueju

Notes About The Poem

Night's Creature--Jq

What is that vague shadow-play
Roaming through the dark of clay,
Night's creature, perhaps, around?
Yet mild grunts …a dulcet sound.

A fawn! Echoes awaken
This breath   my woes forsaken :
How glorious a deer's rite
Shadow-play of hushed moonlight!

Charles Messina April 17, 2019 at 5:53 AM Nette, such a wonderful poem. I had to place this one at the bottom because the first words of the second stanza had to start with the last words of the first stanza. Loved the poem...hugs Charlie
