Looking out the window Of the cancer ward I see golds and russets Way off to the distant horizon Nigh a breeze gently swaying life As the sun warms all colors With its honey glow I let my thoughts wander Over lush hills and fields Till peace pervades And together become one AP: Honorable Mention 2020 Submitted on December 11, 2018 for contest A PERSONAL FAVORITE POEM WRITTEN IN 2018 sponsored by CAROLYN DEVONSHIRE - RANKED 1ST originally posted on October 25, 2018

As one recovering from cancer in the hospital, the individual in this poem has a fragile quality. He/she finds strength from the view of nature that allows recovery to begin. Line, this is an incredibly amazing poem with a positive spin and the recovery process. Congratulations on your first place win! There was excellent competition, but your poem touched my heart deeply and rose to the top. Best wishes, Carolyn

Such a poignant image... a lovely golden fall landscape framed by a window in a cancer ward. Something about this is very hard for me to describe, but as I have been in a similar situation- I find this very moving and quietly emotional (for lack of a better term).

Yes, Rhona, the appealing quality of this poem is hard to describe and it's certainly moving.
