Eerie Monocle

The darkness,
the stealth night,
the starless skies
the hopeless plight
all tried its mischief

And some miscreant ghouls
peeping from their eerie monocle
pulled many scary tall tales
draping the ghostly vision
with tenebrosity and plight

But none such boisterous claims
could take the shine away
from her glowing visage

  1. Isn’t that a beautiful word. I have recently come across the word and thought of using it. The word usage has gone done over time, maybe we can help to regain its popularity 😊
