Notes About The Poem

Written on December 15, 2023

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Counting Blessings

Breaking the heart of her muse, breathing
Soft thoughts, music, songs of the stars,
Dreaming, awake, still dreaming,
Reflecting the laughter,
Oaks and pines, dancing,
In leafy smiles,
Inspiring,
Glowing,
Light.
Bright
Mornings,
Dawn of hope,
Stirring senses,
Kindness, quivering,
Soft like the silent moon,
Glistening in the night air,
Refreshing the stars, the wonder
Resting on hope, blessings listening

Wow thats a beautiful picture , you’ve used here with your nonet. I absolutely love the way yours flow with such an important reminder, to count our blessings, amidst the darkness. And how you’ve used nature to convey this is so ethereal from stars to the moon and the very descriptive imagery…. Absolute pleasure reading this. Congratulations on your win. Sending you light and best wishes for the holidays

Oh my, this is such a lovely nonet dear Gina.. I absolutely adore these whimsical moonlit imageries here that glow in such a silken radiance of your words.. "Soft thoughts, music, songs of the stars,dreaming, awake, still dreaming", "In leafy smiles", "Soft like the silent moon" Ahh, such elegant descriptions here!! You've crafted this in such a profound and resplendent way.. This should do really well in the contest, best of luck :) a fav!
