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

A word I did not know...thoughtful, apt usage. And one I love, 'lambent' is so evocative of the mood you create. Wistful, haunting words and welcome. Mark

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.
