Harmony at Twilight

Harmony at Twilight

A Poem by Melissa Kesead

Fragile pitter-patter, pitter-patter

of the rain

falling gently, ever-softly

on the window pane

 

Quiet tap, tap, tap

of the branches swaying

the whispering silhouette

of a woman praying

 

Noisy drip, drop, drip

of a faucet leak

silent scurry of a mouse

a tiny squeak

 

Dragging bang, dragging bang

of a shutter loose

lonely honk, invisible honk

of a wandering goose

 

Breathless sigh, moving eye

of the sound asleep

lowkey growl, echoed howl

from the forest deep

 

Creaking stretch, stretching creak

of a settling floor

rattle stop, rattle stop

of a wind shook door

 

Fragile pitter-patter, pitter-patter

of the rain

falling gently, ever-softly

on the window pane

This reminds me of a sleepless night all the sounds that seem to catch my attention. It is very descriptive like I was reading the start of a novel. Good Write~

Oh now that was nice. At one point i thought that you where going to increase the intercity of the poem, make it get angry but you did not and it was a nice change to read a poem with no anger in it.

Blessed be, Fallon
