Here, I Give the Night To You

Here, I give the night to you, standing out this whispered eve Crested in a halo’s glowing, amethyst of subtle glance Verses blank in quite dark, on a wayward path you climb Carving long a timed horizon, hovering above the land Take this place in canvassed plea, use the brush of nature’s hand Swath the timid starlit friction, setting flame to hidden dreams Captured breaths in echoed sighs, flowing flesh in silhouette Dancing beams of two step wisdom, long a shroud of taken way Beacons swarm poetic form, harvest cheers its glad response Shine this space our moon of autumn, here, I give the night to you 11/15/16 For: Shooting Blank Verse – poetry contest Sponsor: John Lawless P.S. This is my first attempt at Blank Verse and I am not sure I got it right, so hopefully I am close.
