Sorrow fills the night.
November’s breath
attempts to trap my soul
in a lonely room full of inkless pages.
My doomed thoughts running wild
threatening to over shadow
the future with the past.
But there is Hope this night
words bridging desolation
life-lining my soul home to rest.
Her quill sings melodies
that whisper truths,
I am not alone, unguided or friendless.
I am a poet
And when the words forsake me
I have an oasis to turn to:
As Night Hope dares to dream.

You've captured the essence of her being...
"Her quill sings melodies

Ken, this is a beautiful penning, my Friend. I, too, have known these dark, unending nights barren of moonlight. Sometimes, we can only believe the sun will come again...with all our hearts. You know enough of me to know I earned my name the hard way. Hope makes the difference between mere survival & a quality of Life that cannot be taken from you, no matter what. Thank you for your kindness, Sweetie. Good luck in the contest. Wanda

Her quill sings melodies

Night Hope shall truly be honored by this grand penning my dear friend xxx
