I opened my book
And started to write
As shadows formed
Around the light
I wrote some verses
For no reason at all
And all the shadows
Began to fall
I wrote my fears away
That night
I scared off the shadows
And switched on the light
The shadows were gone
From inside my head
So I closed the book
And went back to bed.

I would like to translate this poem
This is a simple, but very creative poem and I may have given it a 9 but it was so simple in its content that the substance of the poem is insufficient to warrant a 9. Otherwise, this is a true poem in every sense of the word. The writer is very skilled and I shall take not of her. Greenwolfe 1962
