Andrea Dietrich Poet Tetractys

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.

I failed to submit this one in time for Eve's previous contest
