Sandra Adams Poet Verse

Fragments of Light

hidden beneath clouds
lambent light of moon
flickers through silence
within cimmerian shade of night

lambent light of moon
glows atop the crested waves
a ship's guidance

flickers through silence
a lighthouse beacon
abandoned years ago

within cimmerian shade of night
when the moon is dormant
keepers of past light ships way 


trimeric

Jake Ponce October 30, 2013 at 1:12 PM This piece made me picture friends at the top of an abandoned lighthouse one clear night. You can hear their laughter and goblets toasting from a distance. It's very beautiful.
