The Artist Known As Dawn

At eventide, a vapor thick and cold is creeping. Those that sleep are unaware The world outside their homes it will enfold as Goddess Moon hangs pouting in despair. She can’t break through to show her light so fair. But Dawn appears just at the break of day and sees the sky, a canvas dripping gray. She takes her paints and paintbrush and resolves to paint a sky that rivals a Monet, for art emerges as the fog dissolves! For Brian Strand's ANY 2011 POEM with any theme or form max 12 lines Poetry Contest

A very pretty poem with lovely imagery, I really like the phrase "pouting in despair", I'm not sure why but it fits really well. Congrats on the win.

Sounds like L.A. to me Andrea. So happy to see you take the number 2 spot. I am drained from making comments, so guess I will get offline for now. Hope you had a great day.

congrats on a super 2nd place! I like the title and the closing line especially...I wouldn't worry about writing things plainly as you see them andrea, it obviously works for you, if it ain't broke don't fix it! besides, there's plenty of lovely imagery in this one :-)

Dusk paints in the dark of night. Images of death and fright. Where evil lurks among the gloom. And joy is lost within the tomb. Lest,be aware when dusk strokes paint. The innocence his brush will taint.

Love this one, Andrea. Been up since around 6- this morning is a gift. Girl is SLEEPING. I get to read and comment. Heaven ... and rare. The sky you described I just saw. You captured it perfectly... I wage a winner, here! PS - do you own one of those magic bags and if so does it help your pain? I couldn't live without mine. Hugs and smiles as always sent your way, Cyndi
