How

sorenbarrett

How can you walk away from a glorious day?

It was filled with musk from the approaching dusk

It was so bright with growing light

'Twas night with insidious fright

 

Beams of light warming transforming

By darkness hidden, terror ridden

So calm, full of balm

Griping black hold of cold

 

Infant day's glisten morning christen

Rain's flood births mud

Can you walk away from a perfect day?

In the shade you made I'll stay

              Wow! This is both one poem full of juxtaposition, and two separate poems woven into one. I absolutely love this piece. Each poem tells something opposite from the other...and together. 🤯 Well done, my friend. An easy fave for sure. 🌹👏

                Loved the sense of duality, imperfections in perfection. Not sure if I got it right. Lovely poem!
