Poem
Lingering light dwindles among the horizon Twilight fades with a farewell from the sun Shadows disappear as stars sprinkle the sky with the moon illuminating those who walk by Woods appear so much more ominous at night silent blackness causing an overwhelming fright Trees are like charcoal – inky blankets all around as nocturnal animals hunt without making a sound Country paths seem lifeless in the eerie dark occasionally disturbed by a guard dog’s bark Temperatures fall with the mid winter freeze people feel the chill with the cold air breeze Day light sneaks in as the sun begins to rise the moon and stars hide away in disguise Patiently waiting for the darkness to reappear so they can play again, when humans disappear. ~~~ Soft amber and glistening gold hesitate on the horizon Melting mysteries of silence and glowing a surprise in Creating kindness that flows from rivers in graceful sighs Healing, encouraging and enlightening as it does chastise Miracles, bold and vibrant, awaken the heart to delights Enriched by truths discovered in dancing rays of insights Rich hues of crimson memories float across my mind As the music of heaven’s graceful vibrance leaves behind Memories I’ll treasure as I walk through this rich life Where beauties surround me and keep me from strife Inspiration walks past the silent breathes of imagination And I welcome the gifts that enlighten and thrill from creation Where gentlest sparks of joy cultivate with hope to enchant Giving me gifts from heaven that will eventually supplant All the worries that haunt me and live in the shadows within Where longings for the promises of God’s love does begin Collaboration with the Silent One Poetry Contest Sponsored by Silent One Silent One’s verse in Bold Written on October 16, 2020
