Empty Poem by Martin Greyford

Surrounded with fear
Trembling and shaking
Frightened, scared by the silent glow
Of the dark.

Abruptly,
It found me unprepared
Flamboyantly
It flew into the thin air.

I don't know what to do next
The night is big
The dark is huge
It's growing thick.

Nothing I see
With my naked eyes
Not even a dim light
Of the brightest star.

The heavens are covered
With the nimbus clouds
As if it's about to rain.

Not even the hoof beats of animals
Or the chipping whisper of birds
The clustering sound of the trees.
It's all silent.
