MIDNIGHT AT THE OASIS


Lights flicker through the trees.

Music floats in the still air.

Dare we join the party?

Figures twirl inside the glass walls.

The clock strikes midnight.

Time comes to a standstill.

THE PERFECT NIGHT FOR A PARTY


It’s a magical night for a party.

Beautiful couples dance

between the glass statues.

Fancy gowns drape the perfect bodies.

The glasshouse shimmers in the moonlight.

The party is perfect.

A little too perfect.

DANCE WITH ME



frozen Dance


Dance with me until the moon hides its face,
and the sun attempts to quicken the pace.
From the sunlight vampires turn their face,
And dancers twirl to the light’s frenzied pace.

DANCE TO THE MUSIC OF THE NIGHT


chandelier moving

Dance beneath the bright lights.
Past the lifelike statues.
Figures entombed in glass.
The dance floor grows bigger.
The music quickens its beat.
Couples twirl in circles.
The clock strikes midnight.
Let the games begin.

THE MIDNIGHT HOUR





1 Are We Alone?

The midnight hour strikes panic and fear
In innocent hearts that can no longer bear.
The horror soon to besiege us all.
Before night’s end, someone will fall.

MIDNIGHT BLUE


blue night

Darkness enters my room 
in shades of midnight blue.

It breathes its cold breath
on my warm, sleeping face.

It wakes me from a dream
of blue cascading waves.

Instead, I am faced with the dark
and a hollow feeling inside.

Who opened my window?
Who let in the dark?

THE DEAD GAME

Tick tock tick tock
chimes the old clock.
Cold like a vault.
The dancers halt.
Evil is near.
The Dead are here.
Heads are rolling.
Let’s go bowling.
Midnight has come.
A game for none.

THE GLASS HOUSE




Snow falls.
Music fills the air.
In the glass dome of a house,
guests twirl and dance.
Images reflected on glass walls.
Champagne flows.
The clock strikes midnight.
The dance floor empties.
We are alone.
The game has begun.

TIDES ARE RISING




Midnight so dark and blue.
It comes for me and you.
The tides rise to a new height,
hitting the beach with their might.

Clear skies so dark blue.
Clouds are far and few.
The darkness brings night fears,
people running in tears.

I’ve heard about The Dead.
They fill my heart with dread.
It’s time to hide from death.
No time to take a breath.

DANCE BENEATH THE LIGHTS

Dance beneath the bright lights,
Past the lifelike statues,
Figures entombed in glass,
As the dance floor grows bigger.
The music quickens its beat.
Couples twirl in circles.
The clock strikes midnight.

RED SUNSET


Cape Cod July 2013_-60 (by jackfrench)


Sunset brings shadows with the night.
Birds of prey take off in dark flight.
Hues of red fill the night air.
High-pitched howls sound too near. 
Residents hide behind locked doors.
Is that blood seeping through the floors?
The forest rumbles with song and laughter.
Night parties filled to every rafter.
Limousines line the path to the glass house
Glass statues watch them, quiet as a mouse.
Dancing halts at the strike of midnight,
Twirling figures freeze in the moonlight.

BLUE MIDNIGHT

BLUE MIDNIGHT
A midnight so dark and blue.
It’s coming for me and you.

While fighting the shore with all their might.
