Describe a graveyard? spooky. Homework Help =[?

Overhead, dark clouds blotted out the full moon from time to time, casting the centuries old cemetery into an inky blackness, yet further a field, I could see the storm gathering.

Everywhere I turned, a silence prevailed, yet not so silent that no noise at all spoke to my un-steadied nerve. Amongst the tree's, the wind whispered, called to me. A bush, its living green now dormant rattled against some unknown tombstone.
