Twilight Haunt
TWILIGHT HAUNT
In the outskirt of the town ,
Beyond the dragon village,
Seperated by the green pond,
There a castle with two towers,
Wholesome in antiquity of age ,
Beyond the rotten four wheeled carriage.
Inhabited by bats ,owls and ospreys,
Landscaped of blooming prairies,
Non lived there,
Nor has been there,
Voices from there loudly heard,
Culinary smokes puffs overhead,
For the fear of the abstract,
Non dared to venture,
And courage ceased from all.
In the minds of three young men,
Darren ,Garren and Warren,
Courage found venturing hearts not withering,
Horses saddled by Darren and Warren,
Amulets with Garren,
They dared to venture,
And sped towards the castle .
It was a bit night,
In the castle,
Welcomed by onomatopoeic "tywii tywoo" of the owls and bats,
They braced their mights,
Advancing inwards the round table hall,
Began frenetic and apocalyptic shutting of doors and windows,
Glasses broken,metal scraps ontop another.
Came the wind like sirroco,
Thorny hands tossed them up and landed them ontop the roundntable,
Voices shattering round the table ,
Shadow apparitions gearing forward,
Amulets thrown at the gearing crowds,
Captured and locked inside boxes,
The castle baricaded with amulets,
The three young men left the castle,
Never to let open the boxes..
