Redland Bay by LucyOnce again
the day withdraws
into the
vast unknown
hiding all
of life
in watchful
darkness
Such magic
right before my eyes
that what was once
emerald, jade
and peridot
cobalt, sapphire
and ice
are now coal-grey
shrouded
as if
by the veil
of night
Right before my eyes
day has become night!
Magic, I say
nothing less!
The same
spell-binding magic
when my fear
becomes
freedom
right before
your love-filled eyes.
Not easy, I've always found, to handle poems with such short lines, but I must say you managed it pretty damned well here. Well done.
ReplyDeleteThe poem and photo fit together perfectly. Beautiful and simple poetry.
