"The Fall"

I saw it first

in broken flight

with wings a frayed

in dark of night.

No words were spoken

except to say...

you saw me not

now look away.

It's eyes were yellow

a speckled gold

it spoke a language

from days of old.

My heart beat fast

as fear closed in

what was this creature

in forest glen.

When I was a child

I saw darkness fall...

This is deep and conjures rich imagery...leaves the reader pondering long after it has been read, and finding new avenues to explore. Now that is Poetry!
