Too soon, I must
this shadowy trek
to earthen ground
in windy gust
so all alone
a vacant step
I make my last
my six foot home
you lay one rose
upon this patch
a bid “farewell”
descent’s atone

I had a delightful visit to Edgar Allen Poe’s home. I was hoping some of my shots would be useful.
Today’s prompt for the DP Challenge at WordPress – Descent
Happy Halloween to my photographer friends!!!

Thank you for visiting Moondustwriter. One of the many exciting things I've had the honor of doing is writing and publishing in multiple genres (including education) in E. African for E. Africa. As a writer, it is a thrill to write for children (on all continents) who want to learn.
I've been part of the blogging community for more than 13 years. Some old timers may remember the award winning (2011 Twitter Shorty ) blog community - One Stop Poetry. I was the co-producer of that fast growing blog community.
I am a published writer, poet, artist and photographer. I have written, as well as edited, for periodicals, radio, blogs and fellow writers.
There are many facets to this moon - my joy is in meeting you!

Very appropriate photo of the stairs. Were those from Poe’s home? Love the poem as well. Poe was my first favorite!

He was mine as well. Yes, it was a very small place but back in those days I guess people slept in shifts.
