Line Gauthier Poet Free verse

Listen to poem:

Rapt

lingering
in the moment
stretching
the sun
takes 
a final bow
slow motion
a curtsy
and kiss
goodnight

Timothy Mcguire December 16, 2019 at 3:46 PM I like the kiss good night! Line Gauthier December 16, 2019 at 4:27 PM Nothing like connecting with the sunrise and sunset hours - a kiss in the morning and a kiss at night. I had a fabulous summer of doing just that. I recommend it highly. LOL
