Midnight Moon

Midnight Moon

A Poem by Daniel Gardner
"

Just felt like trying something different.

"







In
the day everything is bright
Cars bustle through the streets
Parents work
Children go to school or play outside
Time moves with out a thought
No one ever really thinks of what is going on
By evening Tv's blare
Smoke stacks billow with the sweet perfume of an evening meal
Families are whole.
Slow the busy people prepare for bed
Midnight approaches
Bringing its peaceful shadows
Its bright stars
Its ever changing moon
The black alleys of the brain escapes.
Some of sweet dreams
Others of terrible nightmares.
Out side nocturnal s take over
Restless souls with an never ending thirst.
Blood lust
Passion seekers
Tormented beings
Thoughts of death
Thoughts of murder
Only one person sees beyond the night
Staring upwards
Star gazing
Dreaming of the moon
Enjoying the nights true beauty
All else stops
Allowing one to be embraced by the glowing gray mass
Full of scars
Time can finally stand still
Re-pleased by Gods grand creations
Nothing else matters
Except for the moons seductive glare.

I like the poem. Remind me of a old Dark Shadow story combine with Freddy Krueger poem. The story was interesting. I like the flow and the ending. A very good poem. Thank you.

I love how the scene changes from delightfully peaceful, to dark and nearing a menacing intent. The whole beginning part sets it up well, the contrast between the two. A great read.

This has a peaceful feel, showing the day to day life of those by day, and of those haunted during the nights. I like this.
