DARKNESS FALLS ( A nonet)

[Lisa Arnold]

darkness falls heavily over calm

city as I walk these vacant miles

praying I can find something

to put in my pocket,

but all I find is

a dime and a

handful of

rusted

dust

great poem, loved it

[Lisa Arnold]

Thanks so much Toni, Shellz and SCW I am truly liking this form It's more cahllenging than I thought to stay within that strict syallable line count

[Brian]

very well done, Lisa You are so right, it is hard to stay within the syallable count, but you handle it quite well

[MoonMuse]

Sounds about all I find too. I love form poetry and the Nonet and this sure is a good one. Well crafted and good word choices!
