Shyly Parts The Dark


Full cheek moon, swathes shadow play
Impeccable such slight of hand, delight of day
Wee hours cooled as frost white breath
So modest swoons when dark is left

Two-toned commencements rise and fall
Preamble dawn invisible
Alas, the wheat bowed head and stem
Distinctive skirts slide rising hem

Shall not be told aggressive tales
The time is taken as night pales
In slender fingers plied of gold
Now morning secrets will be told

I most certainly agree with Dark...a delight
of a read.

Leaves a vague but very heavy print behind in my mind.. Can't quite put my finger on it. Appreciating your deep/complex writing!

Very cool and tender... cold in some parts.
Over all, it is great.. I enjoyed it quite a lot

Intriguing and so efficiently rendered, dear TD.

the entire poem was magnificant, but this, was sheer poety...rolled right off the tongue...and heart and mind....
