Notes About The Poem

          .:

- R I P -

Dusk feels suffocating
Moon shadows
From flowering to dust
A race against death
No bluebells on meadow
The stars are resting and angels smiling

 
A journey through darkness
Where are the fireflies with their yellow hands
One last deep breath
The cold does not hide the truth
Wordless at the grave
... Wing beat of a bird breaks the silence

A fast richness spreads over all here, Anne-Lise. Dusk, moon, dust, death, bluebells, meadow, stars. Cosmic!

A perceptive poem on an unpleasant subject, death. Powerful poetry. Kudos for POTD. You tackled a hard topic w/courage and grace. Loved the poem too. Love and more love to you, dear.

Great poetic imagery and the feelings are well conveyed, Anne Lise. May I suggest that you change "where is the fireflies..." to "where are the fireflies..."? Just a grammatical suggestion...peace :)
