Amethyst Droplets

Amethyst droplets lit by sunlights glance
Rainbow shimmers in ghostly dance
Spots of light defying shadows
Illuminating dust devils in empty windows
Awakening ghosts of distant past
Reminders of hours that were their last
Fly buzz sings as spirits rise
Abandoned now their thin disguise
Sun has set and hours are theirs
Moon shine smile through window glares
Garrulous limbs without control
Shake as in fever through minutes stole
Lustilly scream in gaping delight
Skulled mouths sway into coming night
Awaiting hour of harsh cock's crow
Aged revellers arise and go
This time will be theirs, it is their right
For soon it will be Halloween night
