Dusty Trail Quatern

on the edge of the dusty trail i gather thoughts within my mind from tired body aged and frail a bit of strength i hope to find i watch as sun escapes the sky on the edge of the dusty trail the way it bleeds catches my eye scarlet red to a pink so pale as darkness begins to entrail beneath the moon my thoughts take plight on the edge of the dusty trail an illumination of light a set of eyes within the tree an owl spans wings and sets asail his strength i find inside of me on the edge of the dusty trail 4/30/2014

Oh, my, Sandy, this is your quatern!! thanks so much for trying my contest. I have not seen you write a form poem too often and you did beautifully. Was that a typo where you said, "my thoughts take plight"? I was thinking maybe you meant flight so I marked it down one lower for that. Congrats, my friend.

Awesome Sandra. I haven't bothered to count, but I can tell by how it reads that you've followed an 8/8/8/8 all the way. Being a rhyme and meter guy, as you know, I luv it. Keep on girl Hugs ;-) Mel
