Darkness comes in
and fills us with fright
Can't cover it up
Unless you will fight
Black dances in
Gaiety born
The guests at the party
Start to look forlorn
Oh these dark colors
Bearers of the night
Oh these dark colors
They fill us with fright
Darkness comes towards
Dances with a guest
Black dances forewards
And handles the rest
The guest begins dancing
The colors are gay
Black is romancing
Darkness flies away
Oh these dark colors
How sweet, and so gay
Only thing that can break them
The light of the day
Black keeps on dancing
And spinning
And prancing
Darkness takes leave
As the day starts to break
Black doesn't see this
As it tries to take
Another swing at the guest
Who is drawn by a light
The daylight
Sweet daylight
Black soon fades away
and the colors all lighten
To the colors of day

Awesome poem. Good luck.

the flow is nice, almost becomes sing-songy. I think that it has a definite beginning middle and end, which make the crecendo more effective.

i like the building energy and the way it ends with the positivity if daybreak.well done.

good
I really like how the energy of your poem builds up. I think if you want to work on this poem the rhymes in the first stanza seemed a little forced. Overall a good work.
