Salvation Seeps In the Mist

Salvation seeps in the mist And as light fades awe sings in temporal sonnets while goldenrod flits the fields and lavender scents joyful whispers for here neath this shadowy creature, Point Percee revels, wonder dances on cobblestones and voices are lifted beyond horizons as this warrior of scalloped wing and fire brand culls the night skies sweeping enchantment in place of fear, taken from the last war Salvation seeps in the mist where lost sons had fallen and once again risen within the flames of life, breaths of cast dreams where heroes fly and all is well With torches raised high, embers of elation flicker on soft winds illuminating cheers and celebrations in the name of the knight and his fearless collaborator 5/1/17 Written for the Collaborated Poem Poetry Contest Sponsored by Eve Roper A link to Eve’s poem we were to collaborate with https://www.poetrysoup.com/poem/the_dragon_of_haute_savoie_894917

Hi Chris. Allow me to say may the torch remain raised and high. This was expressive. I will leave it at that and let your moment and scene speak. Good luck with the contest. This entry was another side. Well done entirely.
