The Never Ending Night

Azlynn Witthaus-Strait 2009 (Centralia, Illinois)

Free verse
A frosty night, a night so quiet ,but bright.
I couldn't see anything this night.
But, the bright light.
 There was nothing in sight, it was so bright.
I walked and walked, but there was nothing.
But ,the bright frosty night.
I searched and searched for something.
But, there was nothing.
There came a breeze which made me unable to see.
That made me realize, the bright night was not so bright.
