Silvery Moon

The dancers sway to the Rhythmic beating of the drums, Singing with delight,an enchanting folk song, As old as the hills, Under the strange silvery moon, A perfect embodiment of surreal beauty But a fox howls with grief From the graveyard and A dreadful premonition hangs thick  in the air, The village is soon set in gloom, The silvery moon is long fled. 20/07/2016

Nice poem ... Striking contrast ... the 'dreadful premonition' haunts all of us ...
