lurk in the darkness,
on a moonless
summer night.

The wind howls,
animals hide
from a danger
that is near.

Red eyes
peer through the
misty dark woods,
a creature
unknown to man.

It leaves branches
on trees broken,
dead animals
lying around,
nobody knows
what it is.

It lurks in
the darkness.

Creepy things

It leaves branches
on trees broken,
dead animals
lying around,
nobody knows

It lurks in

And to think, I have been sitting outside, all alone, watching fireflies. What was I thinking? This sounds like the stories we used to make up and tell at church camp to scare each other to death before bedtime. This is good.
