Ebon ~*Marge Tindal*~ ~ebon shadows-in-slide slither 'cross the hillside etch deeply into the landscape seeking escape as twilight escalates cloaks this day in serenity hidden so, just beyond peek-a-boo moon ebon~ ~Sharing another view of the Rictameter structure~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

Marge, This is wonderful! My daughter was reading over my shoulder, and she loved it too. It says a great deal when you impress an 11 year old! Sandra |

Marge, this is lovely, a perfect description of twilght, my second favorite part of the day. I'm going to try one of these. There's almost a haiku to feel to them and I love good haiku. |

Thank you for posting this! Never before have I encountered this form of poetry and it really piqued my interest! I love finding new ways of doing things, so I may give the rictameter format a try. I enjoyed your word choices tremendously especially the word ebon. You created such a vivid image through this poem. It was amazing! Thank you again for introducing me to something new. |
