Description
Melancholy wafts o'er the hills
This quiet summer night
I listen to a whippoorwill
Warble of its lonely plight~
Still,still, now the countryside
Oak trees etch a silhouette
Of blackest jet
Which seems to guide
The moonlight down~
Soon again, the sad notes trill
And soar aloft on gentle breezes
To distant hills, which are still
But, faint now, a call returns and teases~
From the trees, I see a fleeting thing
Swift! Whippoorwill, Swift! Think I
Darting to a new found friend a-wing
Lonely no more
I bid goodbye~
Whew this took a lot out of me:) A special thanks to everyone for the prayers and get well wishes I am so glad to be a part of RR and to have made all the wonderful friends I have here...you all mean a lot to me you just don't know...I am still awfully weak and my R lung just doesn't want to stop hurting, thank you for the prayers and thank you for reading my poem and just being there for me

Ah, beautiful! I missed this one because we were on vacation. Excellent poem, dear Susan.
I hope you feel better now.. Your words capture a favrite moment that only comes during my favorite time of year... Comes too slowly, leaves too quick. And yes those inky-dark trees do attract and soak up moonlight.
A very lovely poem with beautiful turns of phrase. Stunning work!
This is a so wonderful little poem, exquisitely written - as far as I can estimate. I hope you are healthy now.
