POEM STARTER

Mysteries of the Night

Whether something natural and beautiful like the stars, or something more sinister, write a poem that focuses on things that are most prominent at night.

To My Mystery Dancer

To my mystery dancer: It’s at night where I feel truly alone. When the animals huddle together for warmth amidst the cold winds. When people turn and shift in their beds, sweet unconsciousness enveloping them. When the various bodies of water ripple calmly reflecting the moons incomparable beauty. It’s at night when I feel truly alone. But I’m not really. When I look at the moon it shines bright on my face. And the stars dance freely in the black abyss And underneath them something or someone,just one, dances with them. Dancing ever so elegantly, gracefully, beautifully. They never notice me and I prefer it that way. They are special to me. Reserved for only me to see. And when I feel overwhelmed by daily life, I can be sure that I’ll see my mystery dancer and that they’ll dance my worries away in their dazzling steps. And now, at night, I don’t feel so alone.
