Carrie Richards Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

Into a Crimson Sea----Five Lines

A sound of bedtime prayers are in the trees,
where the doves have nestled among the leaves.
They smooth the feathers of a restless day.
Like the night-birds,... my worries lift away,
sailing far, into twilight's crimson seas.
