A Close of Day

aloft in the sky this cloudless day the stream of southbound planes x marks the spot where you stood a linger inside my thoughts a tender touch in fingered breeze your breath upon my flesh a blush within a wayward sun setting to my west

The last seven lines are to die for. So well phrased: Endearing and enduring. As Anne-Lise commented below: 'over and over again.' I feel exactly the same way. Blessings, Gershon

thank you my friend...the sky was cloudless but there was a big x to the west...i actually caught a photo a similar moment years ago, in the setting sun, reflecting on the stream...it was gorgeous....i think the photo is in with a poem on here, well maybe not that i am no longer a paid member...:) hugs

One can certainly feel that fingered breeze in this beautiful poem. This makes the reader sigh and gaze to the horizon in hopes of seeing the beauty your words describe.
