This dark poem personifies the fear (of darkness itself, perhaps?) It is interesting how the imagination echoes with what we can't perceive. I did find it hard to come to terms with stabbing the soul, but it does convey the macabre scene before the dawn.

Thanks for this dark poem. It's more like Minnesota night. I thought you live in the south. We are not too bad here, no blizzard like Chicago, even Omaha.
I will also have to chime in and try to make it happier.

Yvette,
A nice macabre addition to this collaborative effort. The eerie feeling is exemplified in your few lines. Your first line is descriptive phrasing for sure!
Mark
P.S. Best wishes for 2025 and beyond.

This poem is full of dramatic language. Your nouns and verbs are strong and evocative. The poem is dark and chilling. You're starting the new year off strong with this one.

This is a totally awesome Renga poem. The words are powerful and speak volumes. The picture you chose compliments this poem quite nicely.
I am a nature lover and that picture stirs my soul. Thank you for that.

Yvette,
You're welcome my friend. Missed seeing you around. Have you been a busy lady?
-
Yes!! But in a good way! My boys were all here for a few days at Christmas (they're all grown!) and my youngest (in grad school) will be leaving in the morning... so I've been cooking and enjoying the company!! :-) I should be back in a more usual swing soon... although I may actually start back some of my writing (prose) I used to really enjoy - although poetry will certainly not be going anywhere! ;) Thanx so much for asking, Lady C -- means alot!! ;) Yvette

Ms. Yvette,
I'm glad you got to enjoy your boys and glad to see you back.

I love the Renga form too. I'm glad Gypsy started the book. I've learned a new form. Yours is fabulous, Yvette. I often wonder why the wolf howls at night. Is he frightened? Could be, but unlikely!! Lol. I really enjoyed your chapter in the book. Well done, my friend. :)) Sandra xx

Yvette,
This is a great addition to the Renga book series. I like the spooky ambiance you've created using the noble creature of the wolf.
Nice work, Yvette,

Comment from CrystieCookie999
This sensory experience in renga form sure makes this reader glad she is not out at midnight among wolves or coyotes, or other things that go howling through the night. Even the echoes are nearly as scary as real teeth stabbing and cutting through prey.
