Sweet OctoberMusic whispers from the forest Mountains echo in reply Chants of magic Fall like raindrops Beat the drum into the sky Shades of summer Lost in rainfall Greens give way to browns And all All the colors of October Yellow, orange and vibrant red Whisper softly, gentle music Sounding through the forest glade Drum in syncopation, Mountains Rain in chants to serenade For sweet October clothed in brown has dropped her vibrant dressing gown. Note: This was written for a contest asking that certain words be used and that the words be capitalized for the judges convenience. Whispers of the HeartA city screams in shades of silence City of the dead Simple statues, towering tombs Whisper that you're gone. An ever growing land of green with marble and cement Ornate and gaudy graves contain Whispers of the heart. Note: Describing a necropolis The Goblin's BeastThe goblin's beast is keeping watch
His stare is grim and cheerless Methinks he'd rather be released To watch another night The goblin then 'tis not at home He's gone a hunting fearless Methinks his pet deserves a feast To starve him's just not right The goblin's beast he's got a name He certainly not earless Methinks if I were this dear beast I'd name meself Forthright The goblin will return quite soon He won't much like my nearness Methinks I'll say goodbye at least You ever faithful sprite The goblin's beast is keeping watch His stare is grim and cheerless
