Still of the Night

On a cool October’s eve
Darkness falls quickly yielding to night
As the last of the leaves cling to bare branches
Giving way to a beautiful yet eerie sight

A feeling freshness is in the air
The crisp calm breeze
Filling my nostrils
As I slowly and deeply breathe

The moon is full
It illuminates with otherworldly glow
Animating shadows as trees sway to and fro
As the gentle breeze blow

My mind wanders with the season
What is out there in the darkness?
What lurks among the shadows?
Perhaps my imagination runs wild
Perhaps no one knows

Free In Thought, 2016
