Darkness.

#AZatPP   #day4  #LetterD

.

Darkness befell the manor,

A shrill scream reverberated from within.

She stealthily made her way on all fours

Notwithstanding the din.

.

Puffing, grunting, sweating she moved on.

Hands outstretched, yet she bumped into a wall.

‘Darn it’, thought she, ‘Where has the cookie-tin gone?’

‘Curses on the power cut and nightfall.’
