Wheeling Streets ~Paradelle~

By lupus tenebrae

 



Pitter patter, ghostly feet,
pitter patter, ghostly feet
empty in the Wheeling streets.
Empty in the Wheeling streets,
empty pitter, patter feet,
ghostly in the Wheeling streets.

Tilapia, the whiter meat,
tilapia, the whiter meat,
as white as new November snow,
as white as new November snow.
Tilapia, the whiter snow,
as white as new November meat 

Faces of the last parade,
faces of the last parade,
the air once carried butterscotch
the air once carried butterscotch.
The faces carried, last parade,
of the air, once butterscotch.

Pitter of the last parade,
butterscotch in empty streets,
tilapia as ghostly white,
as new November Wheeling snow,
the patter faces carried feet,
once the whiter meat; the air.

Author's Note:

The recent string of paradelle put me in the mood to write my third one, after much tribulation.

    Well penned as always but this one for me was really fun and a mind expolsion. My try at Paradelle was not nearly as good

    "As white as new November meat" - reminded me of Mrs. Santa Claus for some reason. Always an education Wolfie, thanks, KK!
