Zombie Night.

A Poem by shadrach hah

Once I was given a challenge, to try and write a sonnet based on a Zombie picture. This is what I came up with.

Arise when the moon is shining down full,

What you were, the remnants still may be seen,

An electric night with a breeze so cool,

You shall go places you have never been.

You have come back to visit your dear friends,

The night of the dead gives you life again,

You are the living proof, life never ends,

We do remember you from way back when.

Once more we dance together, in the night,

I remember the way things used to be,

The night of the dead, under the moonlight,

Shall always bring you back again to me.

One night each year when my heart can take flight,

The night that we all call the zombie night.

You write sonnets too?! I know they are VERY difficult to write and need real determination and practice, from what I read it seems You did it wonderfully, the flow is smooth, and the poignant touch that I feel sonnets always have is also there in your words, I like that your words are simple for a complex form like a sonnet. Well done dear Mike~

Sonnets are difficult in my opinion. I'm no expert on them but you have got a good flow here Mike, rhyme at the ends of alternate lines. Zombie style with a touch of romance. One night a year when the zombies like to call. Well conveyed poet. Nicely done.
