Higher up the mountainside
Coyotes howling longingly
Tonight he will take a bride

Lost in his remembrance
Of how life used to be
Sorrow tears at his heart
He missed his sweet Marie

But the bloodline must go on
So he will remarry
Hunting he leaves the mountain
Animals away scurry

Fear should strike
The hearts of women
In the valley below
The fog is just an omen

Of the terror here to come
Never the earth walks
Such a man as he
And now he stalks

Villagers know the sign
They have seen it once before
When he dragged away
Sweet Marie from her door

Replacing Sweet Marie

Fog rose from the valley
Higher up the mountainside
Coyotes howling longingly
Tonight he will take a bride

Lost in his remembrance
Of how life used to be
Sorrow tears at his heart
He missed his sweet Marie

But the bloodline must go on
So he will remarry
Hunting he leaves the mountain
Animals away scurry

Fear should strike
The hearts of women
In the valley below
The fog is just an omen

Of the terror here to come
Never the earth walks
Such a man as he
And now he stalks

Villagers know the sign
They have seen it once before
When he dragged away
Sweet Marie from her door

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
