Ten Lines from Ten Poems: A Contest of Silent One

inside a space where quiet trails I watch a starscape reel through the night to taste new charms of heaven's sprawl-- lucent the new light waking laced leaves like a satin ribbon twirling round; that in a hush all shadows creep sailing on an air of unconsciousness: When the white of.pristine tones cascade I sleep in the arms of dreams unrefined ... and let a north star bless my world within. ------ lines culled from: About Time A Glorious Alchemy Resting With Nature Delightful Things Playful Chant Of The Wind Into A Woodland Dream-like Silhouette Through All Seasons Someday Finding Me

That second stanza was what won this poem over for me.. What an amazing poem full of poetic imagery.. I can see you carefully selected your ten lines form your thousands of poems and did it so spectacularly.. This was a very hard contest to judge and picking ten was so difficult but you did wonders.. Thank your for writing for my last contest and congratulations on your placement..

What an experience you describe Nette, finding you. Involving Space lucent the new light and the stars affect. Such metaphor's of light in a dream state. What a dream. Your creative juices were sure flowing with this piece for Silent One's contest. Best wishes for the Contest...
