The Loud Whisper

In the realm of the hush At the dawn of the dusk, Do you hear the swooshing of the waves on the shore? Do you hear the shush of the wind as it sweeps low and hisses like the snake winding through graves in the quiet of the night? The fear that reverberates like the rolling thunder with each beat of my heart-- Do you hear its silent echo in the dead of night? And this full robust moon with its ethereal silvery glow spawns what frightful folklore? Beneath this distant firmament with its myriad peering eyes and in this engulfing darkness where would one finds a sliver of hope? ~"Midnight" contest by Nathan D
