Spooked

someone spread

a black shawl

over the sun

the long day

became night

 

the moon crept

inside the dark sky

in a hush

and cast stolen

soft sunlight around

 

an owl calling loud and deep

flew into sight

and spooked

dreamy watch-dogs

to disturb the calm of the night

I can't tell you Abdul, how many times dogs barking in the middle of the night has woken me up, more often than not, I go outside and bark with them, it's a nice cathartic primal process,

Your imagery is divine,

Mortimer
