A fill in poem and your on your own.

In the evenings early hours,
Float the smells of jasmine -------
Sweeps across in delicate rune,
In the light of a yellow ----
Grounds shadows sullen lingers,
Like the touch of lovers -------
And turns like player piano reams.
Where lays the quasi drifting ------
Like holes that player piano sound.
Or baying dogs where game is -----
Intensify the howls that fall
And single out the dogs that ----
High in the trees trembles the prey
He makes his final stand and ----
Momentary escape from harm.
With trembling heart in high -----
He woe's the shrinking of his birth,
His days and nights upon this -----

I'm not a poet, but if I were I sure wouldn't want to miss this challenge!

May your days be filled with lots of sunshine and your nights lit up by golden moonbeams

Pepper, WhtDove and Sunshine.
Thank you all for the comments. It would be interesting to me to see how some people would finish the blank lines?

This is a wonderful exercise - sharp as a tack he was.
