Donna Jones Poet Acrostic

Yesterday

Yesterday, the blue green just before sunset was
All around me...invading
My memories
Troubles disappeared, they
Seemed to vanish beyond the horizon
So
Far
Away...

Now, as lavender leaks to black
It
Looks
As
Though stars are born..
They're one by one rising, as if
Here
To
Stay.....forever

Oh what peace..
I
Believe I could loose myself 
In your blue green eyes..
Yesterday, the sunset invaded my memories.........
