Mysterious

by ah satan 666   Feb 4, 2013


The moon reflected in his eyes,
as shimmery silver light crossed his path.
Tight fitted leather wings unfold,
revealing more than a velvet black body.
A mare mortal... or the deception of a bat?

But in the black of this night, the moon winks behind clouds.
knowing some shadows are best left un-highlighted.
Like quick sand...
a burgundy stream plagues deep into the dirt.
Dousing the roots of the forest, like nerve endings to the coldest of elements...

mother nature does scream;

as a mysterious black silk cape moves swiftly...
disappearing through the mist of death drenched air.

    I love it Natasha, it was sooo you...really well penned, really amazing wording that you used and totally captivating...it was eerie and dark and had that suspense and fear but I really wanted to keep reading it again and again...

    It was imaginative and the imagery was awesome, and the idea behind it was just really clever.

    Great write :)

    This was suc a powerful poem , I loved the darkness in it and how you had a lot of nature in it, it was like a dark nature poem. I think you made a perfect job with your title and animal. I really like the idea of mother nature screaming, this was a great line, also the moon winking behind the clouds.

    I love how imaginitive this poem was and how the readerhas to make up the scene in their own head as to who and what the mystery can be. Very well done. xxx
