Ebony Night Ebony night stunts my mood It blunts my mind of crude and rude It slides me down the pit of ID And will not let me lift my lid I feel the shadows dance around Touch my skin in whispered sound Electrifies the sweat of sere And there the angst appear in fear I listen for each sound a key To turn a latch and set me free But ebony is sheer inane And plays upon my minds insane There is no way to shunt the dark No firefly will light a spark And I am left a pit of dwell That smells to me the fringe of hell To force me to a knave and slave If not a mornings kiss did save |

It's hard for me to imagine you in darkness, as you are such a source of light for me. and if there is no firefly about, surely there must, at least, be a glow worm somewhere about? |

I listen for each sound a key To turn a latch and set me free Sir Sy... I have a key, pick me, pick me!! Loved this! RDB |

serenity, It's not so much the ebony night as the orbit of my mind in flight. |

Seymour, Hey it's just gone midnight here in the UK and this is the last poem I'm reading before I go to bed! Ivor The moment created this second, is a moment that's going to last. |

To force me to a knave and slave If not a mornings kiss did save Sigi Seymore Tabin it amazes me my friend the depth of tenderness,to chase away the fears of night madness,the angry dreams,and night walkers,a single kiss from the one who matters!
