Notes About The Poem
Sara Kendrick's Longevity Contest

Longevity SK

I wonder fierce of twilight's call
When day closes or so it seems 
And wish that longer life be held
By sailing  journeys deeply shrined--
Lengthier be seasons, I'll  wait ,

For more dances of life...hearth's glee
My fervent hope that borrowed time,
Stretches wider than fate's design
Till last morn snuffs all heartfelt dreams.
