Ancient Lyres

The Woods at night

Solar winds tuned ancient lyres—

bright fires burned in the eyes of wolves

as their tremulous entered hidden waters

where little brown bats dipped over secret lakes.

Lunar mists in a minor key hid them all from sight.

I thought I heard those ancient lyres

While I wandered the woods last night.

A haunting remembrance that sometimes can be heard in the woods at night.

Excellent wordplay within the lines of this cozy as hell poetry you have given us. It caused a warmth within as I read it . . . twice.
