Tombstone Whispers (Rictameter)

by Angie   Oct 16, 2007


Tombstone Whispers

whispers
float on the breeze
walking among the graves
in the chilling darkness of night
restless spirits needing their stories heard
transcending boundaries of time
etched in ancient marble
midnight tombstone
whispers

*Special thanks to Michael*

*Thank you Sista Sun for the title toss*

    I love this form and I believe you pulled it off really nicely. The word choice were written in such depth and held so much effect within each one. The repetition was effective and again you have created such an eerie atmpshere. Loved this also. ~Mel

    Powerful poem, repetition of the word -whispers- on the end made a great effect. Well done, this piece is short but it still has amazing rhythm. I like the way that you wrote it.
