The Midnight Landscape Poem by Vera Dike

The Midnight Landscape



It's the vast darkness that lies ahead
and scorched - earth

The breath of dead behind the winds
that stripped the trees bare

I, the stranded boat
in the shallow waters

The nightingale
robbed of its song

I call for You

I call for You to seek me
in the vastness

The Midnight landscape
without promise of a dawn
is the world without you
oh, Beloved.
