Shades Of Shale Poem by Richard D Remler
Shades Of Shale
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The stars tonight
Have taken leave.
They've left me all alone.
The breeze that morning
Brought my way
Has turned and headed home.
Tonight even the
Moon sinks low,
Leaving shadows in its stead,
That linger low and unreserved
Across the riverbed.
The deer that tracked
These fields at dawn,
To feed upon argula greens ~
Have left their shaded shadows long,
Beyond the kidney beans.
And how the darkness
Grows and grows,
Thick as Erbus' shades of shale,
Leaving me within a dark
I know so very well.

in darkness and singsto cheer its
own solitude with sweet sounds."
~Percy Bysshe Shelley
again very rhythmic and a good story leaving the reader just enough leeway to wonder about the darkness :)
