Shadows

Beneath the moon in perfect rhythm 
The shadows cling and move as one
A paragon of scissored arms and legs
Around the forest until they’re done

The Owls hoot the Larks they sing
A melody to cheer them on
The windswept leaves decor so vast
Dark in the night until they’re  gone

Ghostly bright from up so high 
The moon it glows ever brightly so 
Wolf howl far away I hear it cry
Shadows deaf they just continue to go
