Where Shadows Weave


Where shadows weave against the sill
On moonless nights below the eave,
I hear the mournful whippoorwill
Where shadows weave.

It's on such nights I sigh and grieve,
As winds stir up a sudden chill,
Her ghost sometimes I then perceive.

These cloistered stars may then distill
The magic of her rustled sleeve,
The softest sound as all lies still,
Where shadows weave.

More than the rhyming flow of words and the almost magic images that the poem presents I adore the way you transport me to that lonely room by just using a few lines.
