Savoir Faire

A Poem by Chris Shaw

the sun on lakeside water
gleams on surface glass
you can not fail to notice
that light can smother dark
it sparkles and it spangles
and here is where i’ll stay
till every drop of golden
has rinsed all doubts away

Awww. The light can smother the dark indeed, just maybe. Finished off with a nice neat bit of rhyme. Concise and direct. Well done

Thank you so much John for a lovely review.

Oh, lovely images, Chris. Lots of "s" alliteration. Very short, but very pleasant, read.
