Raven

This poem has two dates, the first saw the birth of the first stanza as I was attempting to go to sleep.  The second date, a month later, saw the completing two stanzas come into existence and I feel that the resultant form is rather satisfying.





Raven  -  23 Sep & 23 Oct 14

Raven
Black wings
Rook night
Fractured dream of nightmare
Hastened into the starless realm

Raven
Watches day
Dove flight
Broken nightmares shattered
Carried away into the sun

Raven
Wing whisper
Touch the Soul
Wraps warm dreams around
Takes us into the day





More than a hint of "limite surréaliste" in there too.
