Midnight Pearl

When darkness decends in the long day's wake Cool breezes waft and sigh a gentle sigh The crescent moon her chosen course will take To carve a pathway through the starlit sky And midnight brings dreams of sweet days gone by To fleeting a pearl, to fragile to last Sweet days of delight and sheer youthful bliss That purest of days in long distant past The joy of first love, the thrill of first kiss Is lost back in time and dim foggy mist Margaret Foster April 2012 Contest. Russel's " Midnight Pearl "

Margarel, I am sorry to hear that you have not written lately. Please TRY, dear. Oh I can finally tell you what happened with this particular contest: Midnight Pearl. The sponsor of that contest , I guess his membership expired on him which means he could not get his contest judged. but I am sure he is a member again and doing new contests. Luv, andrea

The greats are great. It's true. But what can compare to the baring of one's soul for days gone by? with great appreciation, love, Kathy

total banality, what can I say, try try and try again with a writing and perhaps something will happen good. I would take some time of reading poetry of famous poets, like Dylan Thomas, Robert Frost etc if I were you.
