There’s a whisper in the wind.
Giggling and hymning tales of the grim,
Rolling in ashen charcoal plumes:
Indigo ink stains hiding the moon,
With embers from beyond burning bright:
Licks of velvet in the satin night.
The evening playground sets the scene,
When the sun dips down below then sea
And the devious breeze
Plays with frocks and toys at locks,
Elemental hide-and-go-seek
On empty, tar-laid streets
Careful not to get ahead of it’s gait
And disturb Earth to her wake
For mother moon scolds by squawks of crows
And in beams of blue and gold
So shutter the wind gusts
And lighter its song skips along
Lest the moons bares its face again
And decides there be only calm
~Annalise
