Twilight Composers

Twilight composers Here on the night before yesterday’s dream Twilight composers retreat Laughing at whispers a’ flow on the stream Happily taking a seat Practicing meadowlark lyrics to sing Strumming a toadstool in tune Awaiting the light that the fireflies bring Blinking a wink at the moon Tulips with tambourines gather around Spider web chandeliers glow Shade tree sonatas, a wonderful sound Echoing up from below Pine cone recitals and blueberry sighs Star dust ovations in rhyme Choruses sung beneath velveteen skies Harmonic three quarter time Orchestral canopies glisten above Melodic rainbows the view Performing songs written solely of love Played on this evening for you Good Night Soupers

I want to live in this poem. No address needed. Were you my hero, Thoreau, once upon a Walden Pond life? I'm sure that, like me, he would relish his own nature feels as delivered so artfully in your poems. A beaut. I'll build my own cabin? All the best, oh - what a read ... CayCay

This is EXCEPTIONAL, Chris. I loved every line....but I especially loved the very first line...the night before yesterday's dream. How sweet. :) I felt the enchantment. Thank you.

WoW! You really can write some kind of wonderful, Chris. Your lyrical prose is singularly unique. Your pen phrase so beautifully. Such a charming poem full of pastoral imagery. Love and joy always.
