ghosts-572038_960_720Walls that slant in faded light

Specter’s roam about the night

Shadows stand in open doors

Footsteps creak across the floors

Thinking this is just a dream

Things just aren’t what they seem

Figures lurk about your home

Now you see you’re not alone

Taunting you until you scream

Trick or treat, it’s Halloween

Spirits awakening
Filling the night
Whispering Softly, Enfolding, Embracing

Banishing darkness
Bringing shadows to light
Rhythmically Floating, Playing, Chasing

They dance in a swirl
Not a word do they say
Silently Singing, Heavenly, Divine

Summoning forth a Revenant Specter
To guide you on your way
Celestial Seraph, Ethereal, Sublime

Make a wish upon a star
See the moon glow bright
Little one who watches
Out the window of the night

Whisk your dreams away
On the gentle evening breeze
Skyward clouds paint the skies
And mingle with the trees

Quietly she sits in thought
Dear sweet child of ebony light
Watches out the window
Enchanted by heavenly delight

Friday Fantasy ~ Always Where I’ll Be

#poetry, Always Where I'll Be, day, fantasy, Friday Fantasy, night, Night Owl Poetry, poems, portal, stars, sun

Through this portal

Shines the color of day

On the other side

A nighttime display

Do I go forth into the light

Or wander back into the night

Walk in meadows

Green and fair

Or gather stars

Without a care

Soak in rays of yellow sun

Or shiver with the clouds as one

A decision made quite simply for me

The night is always where I’ll be

Until the Night is Born

#poetry, allure, dorindaduclos.com, dreams, fantasy, magic, night, Night Owl Poetry, poems, Until the Night is Born, wonderland

Darkness falls across my face
I’m weary from the day
Yet, this is the time that I embrace
Where my mind begins to stray

To fantasies and wonderlands
To visions quite obscure
To a place, my mind expands
With magical allure

Where dreams become realities
Where life’s a nursery rhyme
Where there is no normality
And I can pass the time

Until the light must shine and splay
Become a brand new morn
And I must tuck my dreams away
Until the night again is born
