Lonely Night (Lento )

by Meena Krish   Aug 31, 2009


Pretty night she strolls the lonely sky
cuddling stars her perpetual shiny friends
city life cruelly ignores her slumber cry
holding a umbrella to guard tears that dont end

Alone she lives without a glimpse of sun
storm she calls upon when she demands
throne of darkness webs earth for evil fun
thunderstorm whips life on her command

    "Pretty night she strolls the lonely sky"

    I felt to be the most effective, a comma should be placed after "pretty night". Just my opinion though.

    "cuddling stars her perpetual shiny friends"

    This is so peaceful and comforting, I would just suggest a comma after "stars".

    "city life cruelly ignores her slumber cry
    holding umbrella to guard tears that don�t end"

    Just delete that A thingy in the second line.

    I feel like "umbrella" should be plural or a "a" is needed before. Otherwise, beautiful job.

    "Alone she lives without a glimpse of sun"

    This is so sad but well-put.

    "storm she calls upon when she demands
    throne of darkness webs earth for evil fun
    thunderstorm whips life on her command"

    These ending lines were well-thought out and held much to understand fully her feelings.

    A unique treasure to come upon, thank you for sharing your words.

    God bless you and your family.

    The mornings are my favorite. Fresh air and quiet time. A time of awakening. Nights bother me, lonely or isolated is all I feel.
    A poem well done Meena as always

    Beautiful, your selection of words are just so lovely. Very few poets could paint such a powerful picture in mind with such few words.

    Awesome write

    Nights are very hard on some of us. That is the time lonliness comes to visit. Great job on your mixture of sad emotions mixed with nature.
    Excellent!
