The bamboo sways out to the sky To gently urge me back to quiet rest Opening the veil of fresh morn's grace To becalm my heart .where gjastly shadows lie-- Our lyre of affection... fading away I sip notes of love alone with night; Beauty still her pose, beneath cloudscape Finding her thoughts among bubbling shores, The whisper of night- music as one. Kindled by echoes, the moon's fading light, Falling upon fluid of smokey eyes. .......................... Song I - Cold - Quiet Now Contest For Rob Carmack 9/3/2020

Hi Nette. Congratulations on your memorable Win! Bamboo analogy is beautiful, demonstrating our need to bend with change, remaining resilient. Overall tone of melancholy and reflection permiates through. A very poinant piece, - well deserved high placement.

Well written Nette, loneliness is not a nice place to be, especially when you lose your soul mate. Tom
