Notes About The Poem

Premiere Contest WinnerDusk

Melting sorrows drift toward tomorrow when sounds dance in hushed irrelevance. Sacred seconds are held in creation's tawny yolk as crystal waves of wind bid farewell to this day's fate. A single dove darts through cinnamon plumes in one last dance through heavens gate. With ageless dreams bathed in honey gold it wings its way in graceful sway. How fleeting life might slip from sight when passion yearns for its beholder. Reminders linger in the dusk of mysteries lost and treasures plundered. I stand this post as infinity spills across the sky and wonder fills the trueness of my heart... 07/20/2018 Dusk or Dawn Contest Sponsored by Emile Pinet First Place 08/02/2018

keep clicking on your poem old and new and cannot find one I have not read. That is cool though, to know you are someone whose entire work here i may have read. I did notice this was a TROPHY win for you, so you deserve a huge congrats for that.

So many superlatively poetic lines of exquisite delicacy. “Bid farewell to this day’s fate” has an ineffable quality, that lingers just beyond a mind’s attempt to grasp. Congratulations on your recognition.

I see I confused what I was writing down here when i said your name. I don't know why I said Constance. Probably just finished reading one of her poems and still had her name in my mind. Anyway, this was a very well deserved win
