Line Gauthier Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Infinity

In the reflection of a golden sunset
Nocturnal blessing of horizon’s vicinity

Far from lamenting a plummeting nightfall
I seem to capture a slight twinge of infinity

In the midst of nostalgic reminiscings swirling
Throughout roam thoughts of affinity

Tacit conviction at a higher level
Yonder awaits a reign of divinity

Edward Ibeh December 14, 2018 at 8:28 PM Nicely done, Line!:-) Enjoyed. I see that you entered this for Savannah Brown's contest. I've completely forgotten I also submitted an entry for her contest, lol. It's been quite a while.

Carolyn Devonshire December 14, 2018 at 12:11 PM When we look at the sky (or the sea), it is natural to ponder infinity and feel one with the universe, Line. Like Nina, I didn't even realize this is an acrostic until after I finished it, so this message carries a power of its own. Acrostics are not my favorite form, but this is a new favorite poem for me. Congratulations on your win in Brian's contest! Line Gauthier December 14, 2018 at 1:29 PM Wow thank you. An awesome compliment, Carolyn.

Caren Krutsinger August 12, 2018 at 10:17 PM You have given the reader an equal challenge now, to try and live up to this terrific acrostic-quatrain, not easy to do. Line Gauthier August 12, 2018 at 11:09 PM Thank you, Caren, for your much appreciated visit and comment.
