Crimson Sunsets- 10 Words

Yesterday I remembered how we watched the crimson sky and beautiful sunsets. I often get misty eyes thinking of you and how your favourite team was the jets. My darling we had a passionate love and we fell in love during harvest time. How could I have ever forgotten how you stole my heart, is that a crime? But now as I recall memories of the past I hurt right down to the core. Because I can never walk along the beach shore with you anymore. The tempest wind blew, a big dark shadow came and our boat shook, I alone survived on that horrific day. Sometimes when I am alone it's like i'm stuck in a movie that never ends but continues to play. You left here way too soon, the only thing that gets me through is the Lord's amazing grace. Sweetheart you are forever engraved in my heart and I can't wait to be reunited with your handsome face. 10 Words Contest Sponsor: Joseph May *Fictional Write For The Contest 4-8-18 1.Crimson 2.Forgotten 3 Grace 4.Harvest 5.Love 6.Misty 7.Shadow, 8.Shore, 9.Tempest 10.Yesterday.

Wow, you wrapped his words around your poem instead of the other way around, thus creating some fictional gold of entertaining flow. Really enjoyed what your muse employed (I'm corny, huh?). Glad your muse is well and hope you ad problems went away. I dearly miss and long for Connie. Poetry hugs ... CayCay
