The rigorous wind sang the forlorn song
Of the dying leaves, of flowers and trees.
The dust of night echoed the bleak hill of witches.
Of the desolate mind, there was something more ghastly.
The red reservior
Reminded me of the moon.
And the dreary sky
Seemed to be a watchful eye,
To which I trembled
On my knees.

//I used the vocabularies I've learnt recently from Jane Eyre. Would somebody like to correct my grammer? What should I do if I want to pause there when one reads but it isn't a place for comma or period? Should I start another line? I have had used wrong comma to pause a line. Thanks. I would really appreciate your help.

I enjoyed this. Its great to see that with every poem you write, you're asking questions and always wanting to improve. I think your grammar and your punctuation is just fine in this poem. If you'd like, you can e-mail me a poem you've written with an example of what you're asking about. I'll be glad to help in any way I can.   Meanwhile..this should be read more.  

Your storm of assumption feeds anger I am calm enough to hold inside. Don't pretend to know me if you've never put stretched out your heart with since
