A Raven’s Musings and a question

A Raven’s Musings is one of my own favorites of my newest poetry book. Maybe even of 2014! 🙂 Not just the poem, but I also really love the artwork I made to go with it.

Which of my poems of 2014 did you like best?

A Raven’s Musings

Black feathers, black wings

Of a lonely death he sings

Is it always mischief he brings?

Listening to the Raven’s musings

–

Dark thoughts, dark night

Anxiously waiting for daylight

He spreads his wings at midnight

What a glorious sight

–

Shady plans, shady intentions

The Raven’s unknown missions

Or are these just assumptions?

Silently, the Darkness awakens

–

Obscure words, obscure whispering

I can hear a maiden begging

For a peaceful, painless ending

Death can be a blessing

–

Sinister bird , sinister beauty

His dark appearance sets me free

A voice filled with melancholy

Listening, to the Raven calling me

They were all individuals haikus, right? If so, I liked the one starting, “Dark night”. Look forward to your book.

Only the first one was originally a haiku. The rest just followed lol! 🙂

  Hopefully, yes but I’m all new to this, still finding my feet, but I’m loving being inspired by your works. And opening my mind again after years of being a drone. 🙂 xx

Patty, I think it is the strong Edgar Allan Poe touches in title, words/content, & graphic photo that draw you to your favorite poem here & rightly so!!! It is filled with all that is most meaningful to you! It jumps out at me too as a favorite from your poetry but I have too many. When I ask myself “which ones” do I favor, I really struggle. I will say that your more unique & strongest & sometimes simplest titles are often the key for me….Thus, you see my struggle! Good choice for you the author! Phil
