Night Walk Shadows yield the slightest of sound, concealed by the foliage dense; Sudden streaks of webbed silhouettes wing their erratic ways, Granting but the hint of a glimpse, just flickers against the depths. Breezes tease the murmuring leaves with nearly quiescent breath; Something circles within the dark, voicing a mouse-like noise— Shadows yield the slightest of sound, concealed by the foliage dense. Hidden motions mix in the trees, beyond their perceived intent; Random figures startle the sight, shapes that evade the eyes, Granting but the hint of a glimpse, just flickers against the depths. Careful steps, disturbing the ground, reveal an abstracted quest; Footfall echoes fade in the gloom, fused with the soughing haze— Shadows yield the slightest of sound, concealed by the foliage dense. Shifting shadows catch in the mind from sources beyond detect; Steps take pause to ponder and peer, balanced for briefest poise, Granting but the hint of a glimpse, just flickers against the depths. Formless thoughts disperse in the void, meandering overhead; Flutters indistinct to the sense waft on the air like sighs; Shadows yield the slightest of sound, concealed by the foliage dense, Granting but the hint of a glimpse, just flickers against the depths. |
