Amethyst Skies calm, calm, the twilight rapture lo this peacefulness, if not captured in this, thy soul of even tide go alone you, on a magic carpet ride amethyst, a most lovely word strength of color, its whisper heard to embark toward its light of nether-end makes one want to come back again and whisper amethyst as a soft caress ~ can one receive an amethyst kiss? does one own a pair of amethyst eyes? or just share visions of amethyst skies? as amethyst darkens in twilight's hue springs forth a diamond of star, brand new just the one, sits 'tween dusk and light giving great promise to thee, long night amethyst skies are fleeting, almost gone and yet thy color's memory lives on so somewhere across these amethyst skies thy stars reflect a lover's eyes so linger not, nay tarry none as amethyst darkens over setting sun. Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?...KRJ |

Karilea~ This is as absolutely stunning as the amethyst sky of this evening's sunset. You captured the beauty perfectly. What a lovely, lovely render. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Beautiful, my favorite time, watching the amethyst skies, as the moon gradually appears. This is so lyrical. Sandra |

I can see the clouds tip toeing by as the sun paints the colors of the coming night in amethyst. Lovely write and going in my libray for sure. |

Absolute beauty! Have you noticed how God uses the color? I think it's one of His favorites too. He splashes it everywhere, sunsets, sunrises, rainbows, clouds, hidden in rocks. I love this poem, makes me smile it's my birthstone. Love, Marcy |

What a beautiful picture of a sunset, Karilea. I think that 'enchanting' would be a good way to describe this poem. Lovely work. Elizabeth You cling to your ways and leave mine to me. Suum cuique. ~Elizabeth |

scanning poems today - I came back and reread this - and was shocked to discover I hadn't responded to it already - It is one of the very best I've seen under your name. and btw - I share your feeling about both the color and the word - I shall have to try whispering it aloud at an appropriate time - I suspect you're correct about its greater magic |
