I write of nights, of nights of dark
And nights of clouds once shown
Of moon I write, of stars so bright
Through blackness wind has blown
Beyond the sun, beyond the light
A cloak of darkness fell
And in the sky, a wisdom lie
The ringing of times bell
Beneath the stars of nighttime sky
In brightness it had shone
In darkened gates, to seal our fates
In every mind is known
So long they burn within the air
Throughout the branching years
While here beyond, forever bond
My face and all my tears
Alas my heart the light soon comes
The bare and leafless day
The leaves they fall, at winters call
As time still fades away
Alas my soul too long Ive dwelt
And now in brightness weep
Upon my head, a crown of dread
Forever I shall keep

VERY BEAUTIFUL MY FRIEND
There is always hope my dear friend, a long time since we have talked, life does catch up with us doesn't it? This is a very beautiful poem you have become a fantastic poet.

A TRULY WONDERFUL POEM MY DEAR FRIEND.
My dear friend, it is so nice to read one from you again, and yes one sometimes finds it very hard to accept the light and does keep the dark and cold around them.

Great rhythm and rhyme. Quite entrancing.

This really almost reminds me of shakespears flow...with the whole part of juliet speaking of how romeo is like a rose...but with any other name smelling just as sweet...I liked it.

its beautiful! it reminds me of ancient times when there were still castles and when dragons werent in hiding (u may think i'm crazy but i know dragons exsist). a dragon flying in front of a clouded moon came into my head when i read this. it was beautiful and makes me wish i could have lived in those dark times. sure, tats probably not what you were writing about but thats what it reminded me of.

I really like this poem. you've maintained the rhyme pattern throughout and it sounds wonderful, not forced at all. A terrific job.
