Dusk

Dusk, I wait for you
For you to whisk me away
Away from here, far away from here
Here is my hand, twilight take me down
Down to the river of night to rest
To rest upon the sweet edge of the dusk.

Thank u so much David! I wasnt even sure that I was doing it correctly as I had never heard of a wreath poem before. And everything I write is in prose/free verse... I experiment with other types but i just write as the words come and its hard to do that in form. But thanx again!!! You are wonderful!
