Poem    Silver and Vermillion Part One by Edea Baldwin (6 ratings) Rate this Poem (5 best) 1 2 3 4 5   Frantic, the full moon at her back, She tore through the briars, Sharp pinpricks piercing tender flesh As her eyes peered into the night For a flash of silver fur. The scarlet drops, trail of tears and blood, Led her ever deeper into the forest, And she trembled when she heard His maddened roar of despair, Form shifting despite his deepest groans. Red and silver, colors of despiar, colors of his night Of outrage at the Soul-less gods Who so shaped him. Weeping, she thrashed further inside The tangled briars and branches, Searching, longing, wanting oh, so much more Than the sleek fur, the pained eyes shining through the bleak night. Sponsor ads
