The Sound Of BLACK

The sound of Black is Scary
Black Cats and Black-Garbed Witches
creating a Cacophony

The sound of Black is a Croak
from Black Crows and Ravens
on the branches of an Oak

The sound of Black is Concordant
Ladies in their Black Dresses
looking Smart and Elegant

About this poem:
Just a few more sounds of Black.
The last verse is for the ladies
with their "little black dresses"

Hi Raven
Thanks for your comment. It is only after I read it that I realized that your user name is Raven so I see the connection.
Nah, I don't think you are scary at all, not with the type of wonderful poems/songs that you write.
Have a great day!

Thank each of you for your comment.
wine to your good health, well-being and your little black dresses!
I wonder what those witches of the fairy tales must think of how popular their garb-colour, black, is today.
Have a lovely day!

Hello café
Thanks for your comment.
Is that a black cap and top that you are wearing?
It is amazing how popular black clothing seems to be today.
I like your description of black as a universal symbol.
Have a great day!

Hi Socrates,
I like this poem a lot,
Above all colours black
is the most mysterious,
From the sound of thunder
in a black storm to the silence
of a black tomb.
Regards
Mick.

With your poetic eye,
you have highlighted some
additional features of black.
My focus was on the sound of black.
Best Wishes!
