Black wolf shadows
Cast wide mouths in the moonlight
For the Gargoyles have now come
to life
Climbed down the castle’s walls
To move about with me
Among us they crawl on all fours
Gnashing their teeth
Under the most beautiful smile
The wind sends warnings of their
trickery
Whipping red colored leaves
Tearing them from their branches
Never again will they feel
The life of the tree flow through
them
Yet, they’re finally free to blow
about in the wind
For sometimes
We have to be torn from
What we believe is giving us life
To realize free is the only way
to live
This poem is from my book : Petals Falling
