Walking the Dark
The Owl hooted, the Badgers scampered
black and white suited. The Raven slept
with open eyes, as moon glow fell from
starlit skies. Silence broken by a babbling
brooke, and the Stag drank with a watchful
look. Reflecting light from moonbeamed
skies, and through the trees nature sighs.
On a post not far away, a Buzzard sits in
wait for prey, cants his head left and right,
all are feared this moonlit night. The word
is peace as flowers sleep, awaiting sun for
life to seep. And Gods tears in form of rain,
will kiss and bless their growing frame. The
undergrowth hums a soothing tune, this
soulful night in midst of June. Where the
Nightjars echo these hallowed halls, and
the Bats fly free on sonic calls. With all
thats nigh I close my eyes, heed the
breeze and its ghostly cries. In this I
understand, on nights like this I am
never alone and eyes will follow where
ever I roam,
