Hear it? now... the clock, a-tick... pendulum so rhythmic? The drone of time, most unaware, the camouflage of owl's stare. voices, sonant, (no one's there...) snap of twig... (still, no one's there) Build a fire for the light, wrestle with the arms of night... Watch with me, the shadow's might, a trace of spark to float in air... I slept. I dreamt. And you were there.

Well here I am wrestling with the arms of night again myself.LOL....wonderful verse from you my friend. Couldn't sleep with all the snapping of twigs and all so I thought I would come by and see what all the comotion was about. So what is a dream and how does one go about getting one and please do not tell me it involves sleep LOL |

Build a fire for the light, wrestle with the arms of night... Watch with me, the shadow's might, a trace of spark to float in air... I slept. I dreamt. And you were there. ===================== oh my baby...one day Im gonna write the be all, see all lullaby for you ... but then when one thinks about it ... sleep seems like such a waste of perfectly good poetry time *winkiewinkie* you do your best work in the wee winkie hours of the night me sweet ... but then any time you pick up that poets pen of yours... you do your best work... later-rock-a-bye-gator  me loves ya me |

Hi serenity--you just need some ear plugs and eye shades and a stiff drink...but, nevermind...I would rather you write poetry. |

i got the spook-ular, night-in-the-woods vibe from this one. wrestle with the arms of night... man you are so good at this! I am reminded of the immortal words of Socrates, who said, "I drank what?" |

Wow! What a great write! Interesting pictures you've given us here! Loved it! sp Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these: 'it might have been.' -John Greenleaf Whittier |
