Wonderful

W hen twilight lingers over grassy hill,
O n shimmering blue waters grand and still. 
N othing as lovely as a quiet haze,
D ancing among an evergreen tree maze.
E vening stars begin to emit their shine,
R ed the firmament, clouds of purple wine.
F ind a tranquil rest to solemnly breathe,
U nder heaven’s canopy on cool eve;  
L oving all the beauty God did so leave.

What a great acrostic Caryl not familiar with your writing but will check it out! 37/40 next time double check spelling would have scored higher.

John, thank you for the placement in your contest, I enjoyed the challenge. I checked the spelling a 1000 times and never saw the misspelled word; then I rechecked 4 more times after the contest and found it. Sorry about that... I enjoyed the challenge~ Caryl
