Written: November 17, 2023 That best portion of a man's life, his little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love. By William Wordsworth
_____________________________________________
If just there were a lexis from which to choose. A magic word to silence the clock in the room. To turn on lights for just a while and let loose. Unplug the gloom and watch your face bloom. A magic word to silence the clock in the room In my mind, I retain loads of nameless rhymes. Unplug the gloom and watch your face bloom. Dreams primed my heart wrapped in those times. In my mind, I retain loads of nameless rhymes. By arguing, as if you're the only thing I can say. Dreams primed my heart wrapped in those times. However, they can't be spoken to or buried away. By arguing, as if you're the only thing I can say. They can't, as they secern the effects and price. However, they can't be spoken to or buried away. So I garden, sifting through my memory trice. They can't, as they secern the effects and price. Light in the grass, craving the white gull cry. So I garden, sifting through my memory trice. In passing, geese waveringly cross the sky. Light in the grass, craving the white gull cry. I watch, and it sleeps in solitude, with no name. In passing, geese waveringly cross the sky. Life of light seems to scorch anything as a flame. I watch, and it sleeps in solitude, with no name. Raised hare on a slope with long, clear ears. Life of light seems to scorch anything as a flame. Learn a timeless tune as trees quiver in years. Raised hare on a slope with long, clear ears. Avian species exude it and don't need to learn. Learn a timeless tune as trees quiver in years. Serve us with no words, and seek none in return. Avian species exude it and don't need to learn. To turn on lights for just a while and let loose. Serve us with no words, and seek none in return. If just there were a lexis from which to choose.

Dear sotto i dont know how you do it, this is another brilliant write from you, and i cant help but resonate with the line “ A magic word to silence the clock in the room“ and also “ To turn on lights for just a while and let loose. Serve us with no words, and seek none in return.“ beautiful and deeply movingly captivating! Theres always so many thoughts wisdom and introspective feelings woven in your poems.

dearest Sotto-your poem mesmerized me at the onset..."a magic word to silence the clock in the room." You set the somber tone perfectly with it as well as "unplug the gloom." You describe the feeling beautifully. Your poem is beautifully surreal with intricate images. The rhyme scheme was impeccable as well. I loved "loads of nameless rhymes." This is an outstanding contest contender. It's deep and divine. Best wishes with the contest, your poetess friend...enjoy your evening, Sara
