Driving on the nights highway <br />Deep into the dark night that swells <br />Scorched by the moonlight gone astray <br />The wind laments, the devils dwell <br /> <br /> <br />The dark blanket of the night enshrouds <br />A sudden chill, a gust of fog envelops <br />Sensing a bad omen, together we all crowd <br />The car sputters, the engine goes bust <br /> <br /> <br />The spirits rise from the ashes <br />Chanting ha ho, ha ho <br />A searing bolt of lightning lashes <br />Will there be no dawn tomorrow <br /> <br />The wolves huddle, stalking around our door <br />We could hear the beats of our heart <br />Whimpering with fear, crouching on the floor <br />As they lunge....I wake up with a start.<br /><br />Renu Rakheja a.k.a Tranquil Ocean<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/e-1-dark-the-night-s-highway/
