As Cool Winds Grace Soft Emerging Twilight

As Cool Winds Grace Soft Emerging Twilight Where dawn and dew laden green meadows meet earth hosts visitors from fading skies. All our wide world tis but Nature's blank sheet yielding to song and newly birthed life cries. Sun conspires with Nature's creating hands cool winds grace the soft emerging twilight. Love, light and joy races across these lands as hope's sweet wishes explode into sight. As sunbeams stare into glass windowpanes man wakes to beautifully crafted scenes. Erased are his sad and dark dreamed night stains sought now, life living well by any means. Where dawn and dew laden green meadows meet All our wide world tis but Nature's blank sheet. Robert J.

A delightful sonnet:-) I love the way you have used two lines from the poem to create the final couplet - I've never seen that in a sonnet before:-) I try to post a poem a day but sometime life issues get in the way - good for you Robert:-) hugs Jan xx7

Yes, I break a few of the rules that others think inviolate. Some even think doing so makes a poet a pariah.. a charlatan, an ignorant poser! And such people that cleave desperately to their stone monuments while disregarding the true soul of poetry ARE THEY THEMSELVES LOSING ALSO.. IMHO
