Premium Member was that a creaking limb
Was that a creaking limb? I look up at a large oak soldier Noticing an enormous squirrel nest for the first time It is two feet wide, about fifty feet up on a large branch A raven pushes off another branch I hear the creaking limb sound a second time Realizing it is his wings flapping against the air...

Premium Member The Creaking Swing
The moon hardly pierces the winter clouds. Afar, a solitary wolf howls. The girl sits on the Glum-Glade swing. The pain of her claws growing and the frost made her wince. Still one rocking and she will become the raven ready to fly and spread the seeds of malediction. Cursed are those who have discovered her secret. It is dangerous to spy on a sorceress in the woods. Afar, a solitary wolf dies. And...

Creaking Beams
Creaking beams Who waits in the shadow of these creaking beams? Waits between the pillars and rafters’ Waits unbeknownst and overblown Without the sense to come in from the cold Isolated in darkness, eyes can not see Nor recall the moments conceived, But who will heed those creaking beams? While waiting to come in from the cold ...

The Floor Was Creaking
The sky was dark, The thunder rolled. I was alone, and in my bed, When the floor started creaking. It started slow and soft, Barely able to be heard. Then it became louder and closer, and so I wondered “Why is the floor creaking?” “What, or who, could it be?” And “Oh, what should I do?” These thoughts and more ran through my...
