Left Behind.
Dusk closes in
.............. .....except for a patch
in the mist's western bank
...................... which still shines
like a piece of daytime
..............................left behind
by some accident.

Yes, some summer nights it hardly seemed to get dark at all. Good write Fay.
I like the spacing, reemphasises the wondrously dramatic nuances in normality - being conveyed so eloquently in your write
Those patches of light can be so uplifting Fay.

I see so much in short pieces and this one hits the spot! This was the end of so many beautiful days that I remember......
Great to know the read prodded you memories Lorna - - and thanks too for adding the piece to your list of favourites.
An act of nature, gifted to you to marvel upon. Just as is some poetry when it tickles the aroma of a sensation we struggle to put into words.
Magical moments, how strange they are overlooked by so many. Are we poets tainted with a sight beyond or is it a sight within, there again does it matter, we are just tainted.
Good Afternoon FAY - Angela Here - No more clients today - so I am relaxing with a Cup of Earl Grey and catching up on MPS. Love the POEM & the Spaceing - for emphasis & pausing ! I love the Sunsets in New Zealand ~ Days were always reluctant to yield fully to Night ! No POEM today but we have one ready *In Defence of Wasps* for tomorow ~ AMEN !
Blessings & Joy & Peace with LOVE
Angela - Brian - Smokey 💛💛💛

A ray of light - it should be called a Fay of light - you bring the sunshine with this gem.
Ah - - - how kind and thank you sincerely dear Michael for this lovely comment on Left Behind. - - - these unexpected pockets of light when dusk falls never cease to amaze my poet's mind.
