The Dark Night Poem by Leslie Ledoux

The Dark Night

Rating: 4.5


Gathering around the waning fire
Trying to stop the shaking
Amid life's quagmire

The growling and groaning in my gut
Keeps me awake
Waiting for a bite, even a nut

Joy abounds only in belief
Where stress is common
Sighing in blessed relief

Hope, where can you be?
The night is dark
Sitting under this tree
