Resonating Words Poem by Marcus McKinley

Resonating Words

Rating: 5.0


The darkness looms
Evil blooms
An effervescent aroma
Fills the air

An onomatopoeic sound
Fills one’s ears
Upon delivery
The bouquet of death

‘Tis Edgar Allen Poe
Reciting verse
His shadow growing darker
In crescendo

The tolling bells
Need no rehearse
Their end result
Is inevitable

An onomatopoeic sound / Fills one’s ears / Upon delivery / The bouquet of death... Marvelous illustration of mystery behind the words. Words are really the unknown entity which our ancestors also tried hard to find its origin and the ends of it. The sound Or something else which fascinates our longing to define it close....Any way, its a complete poetry. Beginning and end truely resonating with the same string and harmony. No exaggeration of words, no emotional hiding, no sicky terbulance shivering inside the wind. Regards, pranab
