Notes About The Poem

The Field At Sunset

Here is a flowered field laid before me. So vast and green, it shimmers like the sea. This sea of pretty green swims in my eyes. I’m drowning in sunset’s last yellow rays. Sept. 28, 2020 for Eve Roper's 'Double Tetractys 4' Contest I failed to submit this one in time for Eve's previous contest

Echoing QTR, you excel in drawing poetry out of a field of simple flowers soaking up the sunshine. Fully expecting this to be a winner, my friend.
