The Best Poem Of Paul Perkins

Dark Enchantment

Dark Enchantment - 2018

In a red New Mexico moon lit sky,
long night's capering shadows
cast dancing ghosts
redesigning dusk desert paths;

so quite,
so alive,
looming loma roja
reflective life forms

shared now by the
first time
runaway child
a thousand miles from home;

only solitude speaks
in still long echos
of dark enchantment.
