Little Day


http://sundaywhirl.wordpress.com/


Where do you go and how little day?
Translucent feet touching earth’s fringe far away
as golden sun flames in a coral sea
Permeable moments of serenity
born, yet swift as a breath is exhaled
gone; frozen, impaled on history’s field
shocks decking a luminescent hill
Where anguish and ecstasy bond mutual soil
And a new day startles the dark’s solemn girth
In fresh potential of misery or mirth

  3. What fun. At every turn a surprise. Not a predictable poem. And lines that are gorgeous: Permeable moments of serenity
    born, yet swift as a breath is exhaled
    gone
    And a new day startles the dark’s solemn girth
    This is clever and lovely.

  5. Beautiful piece, Janet. I agree with Margo, there is a surprise at every turn. I love "impaled on history's field," and the rhyme of exhaled and impaled.
