They are living daydreams, dressed in clouds of light brought into being from stardust a lost race Eternal, childlike No -one knows the star Or, from how far they travelled To pause at the edge of myth To fling bright peonies into gray oceans to turn hopeless allegory’s into voyages of promise A STRAND (1060) Contest Judged: 1/27/2022 11:35:00 PM First Place

love this, such a pleasant stroll and another one of those we must look deeper into....yes, we all come from a sun now long gone...i see the unity in that ...

Congratulations on your contest win, SuZ. The poem was, "Far Out". Seriously, it was a beautiful poem of wonderment. The intrigue of the unknown woven into the beauty of the universe and the mysteries of myth. An Enjoyable read, thanks for sharing your poetry with us. Smiles ~ Blessings, Bill

Awesome poem, Suz! Enjoyed the daydreams dressed in clouds of light and exquisite vocabulary: To pause at the edge of myth, To fling bright peonies into gray oceans, to turn hopeless allegorys into voyages of promise. Excellent-- an instant FAVE.
