Love this poem! your words are chosen so well and are written with perfect rhythm and rhyme. I love when a poem is written with good rhythm, because the reader(yours truly), can relax and enjoy the flow of the words and get "pretend spooked" out. fun fun fun!

Your own words dance all through me with such a tug and pull that I'm left smiling in a way that feels so good, and you're so very right — it is "fun fun fun!" ; )
Big hug of "un-scary" thanks to You, dear poetess! ⁓ Richard
Hope you don't mind my sifting through your attic Richard. Glad to have found this little gem buried deep in the dust of time. A great read

I'd have thought you would choose a Free Verse piece, rather than a Ballad. But, it's an honor to be enjoyed in any form. : )
This was penned for a Halloween challenge.
Thank you for reading and the always appreciated praise! ⁓ Richard🖌

I'm a lover of all poetry, just fine myself chafing a little at keeping within the lines, though I can still close at times, you might want to check out my "Sitting at the Feet of Ezra" explains my love of modern, while trying to be a good boy for the teacher

I've read that Ezra Pound piece of yours, among several others, the grand Seafarer amongst them.

Yes, they lick and rescue, as-well-as being the source of this haunt of a nightmare … LOL!
I can recall when the bedcovers wrapping around my legs and ankles caused me to dream I was being pulled down and drowning, just as the dog licking my wrist bade me experience this evil nightmare … LOL!
Such is life, such are the endless sources of our dreams … thank you, My Fine Friend! ⁓ Richard
a dance with death is usually a preview to the big show...get a check up! :)

I never was worth a hoot at humor or terror, but was invited to taker part in a Halloween contest, so this is what floated out of my pen; so glad you stopped by and bragged on it a bit.
I need all the encouragement i can get … LOL! ⁓ Richard
