The Soul of a Raven

O Raven perched atop the willow tree, A guardian of all that he can see. His grating call to summon the twilight, And brings us safely to our rest tonight. O Raven soaring on your wings of black, Always onward and never looking back. Carrion hunter searching through the sky, He takes my soul to where’re he doth fly. It is the world of Man that holds me down, Yet my soul is graced with his mantled gown. Form: Sonnetina Due
