Magenta Velvet
~*Marge Tindal*~

There is a velvet to the twilight sky
that caresses the coming of night
Cloaked in magenta's soft beauty
awaiting the twinkle of stars-in-light~

Soft velvet stairs to the welkin gate
hold sweet dreams-in-waiting wish
Gentle the movement of moon-in-phase
across the ebon in galactic swish~

There is a velvet to the morning
that cuddles the meadow in dew
Moisturized wishes now granted
in the dawning of love-in-renew~

There is a velvet to the heartbeat
of lovers in union of morn
Poems are made in the gentle-of-night
to be shared on the dawn newly-born~



~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~

Marge,

  With or without the twinkling stars, I'd have to say this is one of my favorites you've written, if not my favorite.  It's breathtaking.   There are some poems that flow effortlessly when I read them, yet I don't linger upon the words.  Still, I think they're very good.   When a poem flows effortlessly and it controls the speed with which I read, slowing me down to inhale the essence, I call that great!  Yours did just that!  A keeper!

I thank you all so much for letting me share a little of my thoughts with you~
I recall the morning that I originally wrote this one ... out on the patio with my second morning cup of coffee ... the words, "there is a velvet to the morning" kept flying around me ... I captured it and let it write itself to the page~

Appreciating all replies ...~

Miscellanea~
What a lovely, lovely compliment ... thank you~
Effortlessly is JUST THE WAY IT CAME TO ME~
**I just peeked in the archives ... this is what I wrote on the original poem**
quote:
As I sat quietly sipping my coffe outside yesterday morning ... the phrase 'there is a velvet to the morning' came tiptoeing out of the woods ...
I scribbled it on a piece of paper and went about my day ... then when I made the time to pen it ... it just flowed so effortlessly that I knew it was meant to be shared~

I just love it when the woods gives up a word-thought that splashes in my inkwell.
