Carry On Tuesday #8
The prompt this week is the opening lines of the poem The Listeners by Walter de la Mare
"Is there anybody there?" said the Traveller,
Knocking on the moonlit door.
Use all or part of it at the start or somewhere within your poem or prose.
~
Anybody there
Wind blowing tight inner strings
Quavers or minums
~
Black notes on black lines
Is there anybody there
Listening for lyrics
~
Or just rustling leaves
Knocking on the moonlit door
Said the traveller
