Echo

The dusk of thoughts, felt aloof

Where once a spectrum of light

From your presence held home,

In the dark shimmer, minute by

Minute where the sun settled down,

And the trees swayed.

I silently kept my faith,

I loved my sky of

Emerald hue, where clouds in little light passed by

And the sea sang songs, with foam of wisdom

Whooshing against the quay...

Your voice, echoed a thousand times

Where a hundred times you'd say

You are winged my love, follow me and you

Will see, where I just hide at day

I agree with CD, there is so much shimmering in the lacunae between words in this wonderful poem. The images are like memories, haunting.

Hello Softly :) Thank you so much for stopping by and leaving such a warm review

[CD Campbell]

This is amazing in it's imagery. I love the last three lines, I find myself going over them every time I look back up to the screen. I think there is something hidden there in the middle that I can't grasp though. A small dark edge maybe? Anyway, good write. CD

Hi Ken :) Thank you very much, dear poet

[SleeplessVolcano]

Those echoes tend to be simultaneously comforting and tormenting. When our voices come back to us, we do not always get it back in the same way it was sent - sometimes we are blessed with interest, but mostly, not.

Inspired poetry!

Evocative imagery!
A little sad...

Lynn. The shimmer of nature's echo of light, in the above written word is as beautiful as a rising full moon.
