These poems have been borrowed from oral poetic narratives from different cultures. Narrative poems include old epics, lays and ballads.

Answer 2

Expla"Her hair as dark as midnight

Sleek and wavy, trailing down.

Her skin pale as moonlight

Projects a silvery glow all around.

The night so cool and quiet,

As the stars twinkle in the sky.

And all of nature stands in awe,

As this beauty passes by."
