She's No Scarecrow
A Zejel Inspired By A Brilliant Artwork By Carl B Parker, and for the Vocal "Say It Plainly" Challenge
Introduction
Carl B Parker is an amazing artist, husband of the wonderful Misty Rae, and this is another amazing piece by him that spoke to me, with its almost Poe-like darkness.
This is my fifth piece inspired by Carl's work. You can find him on Facebook here:
This is a zejel
The music is "Lady In Black" by Uriah Heep
She's No Scarecrow
๐ค๐ฆ๐ธ๏ธ๐ท๏ธ๐ฎ๐ท๏ธ๐ธ๏ธ๐ฆ๐ค
In Black She Stands Without A Face
She Gave Up On The Human Race
The Crows, Her Friends In This Dark Place
๐ค๐ฎ๐ค
She Stands Still In The Moonless Night
By Rusted Rails She Has No Sight
She Is Shunned In Her Semi Life
To The Crows, A Queen Of Dark Grace
๐ค๐ฎ๐ค
Of All Things She's The Living End
In Living Robes, She Does Portend
The Crows Being Her Only Friends
She Offer A Mystic Embrace
๐ค๐ฎ๐ค
Is She A Witch Or Sorceress?
Those Who See Her, Are So Distressed
The Lady Of The True Darkness
She Is A Vision Now Erased

Fabulous work Mike! ๐
You are so right the image is Poe-like, and your poem is one that is thoughtful and makes one think about who she really is. Good job.
