Night Circling The House

Pull down the shades,
the darkness of night is
circling the house.
Hidden shadows
and
quiet winds whispering
in solemn prayers.
Is this a night of intrigue
or
is it a night of dancing in
the dark
and
covering hidden passions?
Shadows of the dark
piercing the tangled webs
of
escapades only the night does see.
Stars winking
at darkened shadows that cover
the secrecy and mischief
of
the expanding darkness of night.
A darkened silhouette
tapping at your windowpane.
A night sound creaking at the backdoor.
Is this darkness
wanting to move into your domain
or
is it the night circling the house?

To night, or not to night! That is the question!  

I really enjoyed this!

Hidden shadows
and

in solemn prayers.


Beautiful and mysterious.
