Pay 2 Play

Prepossessing pair liquefy as a still river’s exquisite glaze ~ An undercurrent ripples in the lazy meander to ply compliance Yellow tones of twilight seep slowly, warming a cold demeanor These two play in crepuscular light, ensconced in downy fur Wearing black and white, is moonlit night, only half-lit, as unfolding dawn's fawn, denigrates the dark... Proportionate seconds rake nails in a rhythmic clickety-click Long strokes make feasible winged flight, high with the half-moon: a cogent straight-cut through a curve of semi-shiny symmetry Yielding to heat, dews exuberant, deluge chilled lungs and fog river’s gaze ~

this one was vying for second place! superb wording and creative use of language, you're doing things with words here that make me go 'wow!' haha i love the internal rhyme and alliteration..as i said could easily have been second place, but maybe my understanding of the poem wasn't quite there and some of the punctuation confused me a little(?) no matter, still a superb poem - congrats on your win in my contest! :)
