Black feathers, black wings <br />Of a lonely death he sings <br />Is it always mischief he brings? <br />Listening to the Raven's musings <br /> <br />Dark thoughts, dark night <br />Anxiously waiting for daylight <br />He spreads his wings at midnight <br />What a glorious sight <br /> <br />Shady plans, shady intentions <br />The Raven's unknown missions <br />Or are these just assumptions? <br />Silently, the dark awakens <br /> <br />Obscure words, obscure whispering <br />I can hear a maiden begging <br />For a peaceful, painless ending <br />Death can be a blessing <br /> <br />Sinister bird, sinister beauty <br />His dark appearance sets me free <br />A voice filled with melancholy <br />Listening to the Raven calling me<br /><br />Patty van Delft<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-raven-s-musings/
