Dark Mark to the tune of Skylark.  Words by Johnny Mercer, music by 
Hoagy Charmichael.

To Haggridd, glad to hear you're home!

Bellatrix, sitting in her cell the night of LV's rebirthing, notices 
that the Dark Mark once again burns on her arm.

Dark Mark, why do you this night appear to me?
Is my Master now returned and free?
Is there a meeting I have missed?
Has my Master spat and hissed?

Dark Mark, have you seen a graveyard lined with yew?
Where my Master cast a spell or two?
Where all my brothers meet again, 
In a Muggle-ridden plain.

And as you're burning bright
Would you please tell me what occured tonight?
Such strange occurance, silent for nigh thirteen years, grant me now 
this boon...
Sad in this cell, anticipating him soon, oh,

Dark Mark, I can't apperate to find these things,
But my heart has found a snitch's wings.
So if he's waiting anywhere
Tell him I'll be there...


Ginger, in a mellow mood today (mental note to self: filk a Barry 
Manilow song)
