Gershon Wolf Poet Couplet

Sunday Evening Stretches

Sunday evening stretches and yawns
  drowsy as a tender fawn
Who frolics and plays throughout the day
  then curls up midst leaves to lay

While sleep overspreads her dewy head
  constellations crisscross above her head
How sweetly angels sing in her soft ears
  a moonstruck smile o'er her lips appears


     ~ Sweet dreams, everyone! ~

Chris Green October 4, 2021 at 11:33 AM I sure wish Sunday evening would stretch a little further because Monday morning sure does seem to show up a lot sooner than expected. : ) This was really nice my friend, beautifully written. Gershon Wolf October 4, 2021 at 1:24 PM Yeah, I'm with you, Chris... and appreciate the love on this one... As for Monday, it's next up... ~ Gershon

L Milton Hankins October 4, 2021 at 7:58 AM This is a very sweet, lovely poem, Gershon. The opening personification is absolutely splendid. I may borrow the concept. Gershon Wolf October 4, 2021 at 8:07 AM Milt, thank YOU for YOUR sweet and lovely comments. Deeply appreciated. I'm flattered that you're thinking of borrowing the concept. Cheers, Gershon

Judy Ball October 4, 2021 at 6:19 AM This is such a beautiful and relaxing piece to read. Sunday evening comes gently, stretches and yawns and curls up like a warm kitten in your lap while angels sing softly in her ears. Love it. I'm faving this. God Bless, JB Gershon Wolf October 4, 2021 at 7:15 AM Just love your 'cute as a kitten comment,' Judy. And thank you so much for the fave. Always an honor for me. Take good care, Gershon
