The Hardest Part [Is The Night] [repost]

by Jack Daniels - Virgo

Standing in the misty graveyard
Thunder rollin', Moon ascendin'
Screaming vegetation
Sinks down onto the mud

At midnight, nothin' is as it seems
Whisterlin' wind and evil powers
Predators cower from pouring rain
And hail

Darekness tightens it's grip
The hardest part of any dream
Is the night

Ivy clingin' to the wall
Birds beginin' to call
Wind howlin' through skeletal trees
Moon comes up, the shadows freeze

Darkness tightens it's grip.

Reason for writing:

    Its a repost.....I know.
It was the 1st poem I posted at this site, and still my favourite. It has appeared in several forms over the past 7 months, and I have posted 134 other poems here, but its always been the orginal poem that has stuck with me.
Thank you for reading over the months, and through the turbulent waters that have marked my residence here.
