To Whisper Mildly---Lgt

In moments when the twilight sparks
To gently flare as dark embarks,
Tender comes eve swinging a hum
While air-brushed clouds, on flight, succumb.

Yet, through the lull of sky, I hear
Their voices billow quite unclear
Whispering mildly, still I know
Those refrains from seasons ago.

Somehow, before the call of morn
When foggy mist glides on hawthorns,
And daybreak hails a new sunset
I trace past journeys now at rest.
  
Amidst the quiver of my dreams,
Beloved voices float midstream
On to pathways that bless each name;
Marked deeply in my soul, aflame.

For the imagery and the near perfection of your writing technique, this one gets a high placement in my contest, Nette. That line about hawthorns wowed me. Last verse as well. Congratulations.

It may be a whisper, but this poem does speak volumes, nette! I like the beautiful imagery you have laced here-- and the flow is melodic. Beautiful write! And I sure am glad you are ok, and safe! I was wondering about you, and hoping walang nasira sa inyo, sa amin, and daming punong nabali at natumba :(... Hopefully back to normal na sa inyo lahat, and ingat ka lagi!

Dear Nette: Someone once said: "Words can make magic." You know what? Your wordplay makes more than magic! In my view, you are the 'Poet Laurette' of this realm called PoetrySoup dot-com. Any objections, anyone? Guess not then. Keep waving your magic wand (Pen), dearest poet laurette of the Soup! All the best then, Leon.
