The Great Promise, the Sweet Hope

The Great Promise, The Sweet Hope

morn's beauty, a new seed sprout
illumination
dawn's glow, whisper not a shout.

From The Fields A New Harvest

high noon, soft radiant heat
earth's titillation
treasures set at mankind's feet.

Waiting For The Moon's Beauty

red sunset, soft burnished rays
waiting sensation
harvest from another day.

Thank you my friend. Came to me as I watched a sinking sun. And felt the promise of a night with a golden moon. With memories of youth, vigor and a life long past. God bless....

The day in all of its "burnished" glory - every minute a newborn chance for life to dawn in poetry Bob. Love the adaptation of the haiku format. Blessings for every nascant minute of this beautiful day.

My wife read this poem and the comments- she then asked me about where is that pearl necklace I promised her a few years ago... I think I just may have to visit a jewelry store soon...

Thank you my friend. Your understanding of poetry and messaging within is definitely on a deep level. Sad to me that more are not on that level but one can only --hope-- the future sees a correction on that ... God bless....
