Notes About The Poem

Rob's <7 Contest   ~   July 29, 2025

Another Day Fades and Dies

Softly, the sun shimmers with golden glimmers  
as a sanguine sunset dances a marvelous minuet.
Past the time of twilight skies, another day slowly dies, 
only to be reborn again on tomorrow's misty morn. 
With the warmth of radiant rays, Sol deftly displays 
Dawn's luminous light in place of celestial starlight.

Susan Ashley August 1, 2025 at 1:47 PM Dear Lin, your poetic pen shines in this exceptional poem. Beautiful imagery floats dreamily upon the page and into my imagination like the "golden glimmers" of sunset upon the tide. Congratulations for your success in Rob's contest. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan Susan Ashley August 2, 2025 at 9:42 AM what I admired about your inner/end rhymes is that they were not obtrusive, they flowed beautifully within the lines to enhance the lyricism with soft poetic finesse. Lin Lane August 2, 2025 at 8:41 AM Many thanks for your gracious comments and review of this verse, Susan. Not often, do I accomplish inner and end rhyming in each line, but with this one it just seemed to flow.
