RETREAT

 
Source:

 

 

The night is here

and much too soon.

Darkness descends

with the full moon.

 

I shiver from the cold

as a strong wind whips past.

The moon hovers closer.

I hope this doesn’t last.

 

Dark shadows gather.

Trees fade in the mist.

Night has won again.

I can’t handle this.

 

 
 

The moon’s glare defeats me.

I retreat to my lair.

With the wind at my back,

I must escape from here.

The night is fright time in some dark corners of the forest
watch out little mouse for the silent swooping owl
watch out little bird for the prowling fox
