"Shattered Sunlight"
Shattered sunlight pierces
The silent orchard,
Merrily spreading the dawn
Across velvet gardens,
Wan in the paleness of night,
Until daybreak sings
Into the gales, cheerfully
Bidding adieu to the
Moon as it strides toward its bed
Of daylight, vanishing
Beneath faraway ridges and seas.
Morning Glories ascend
Into the sky, resurrected by the dew,
Unfolding their illustrious
Golden cities to bathe in sunbeams,
While the encircling lilacs
Batter their jewel-like eyes
To the distance, winking
To a golden-haired sun as it mounts
The steps to day.
Who wrote this poem? What do you think of it?
Don't know who wrote it, but I like it, and I don't often like poems the first time I read them, except limericks and such "light" stuff. But the imagery is powerful; I like it.
Did you write it?
Reply:I like the poem, though it could be cut down alittle, it seems to loose the interest as you go along.
Reply:Hmm..not bad. I don't know who wrote it but I'll bet it was the writer of the question! There's some talent there, I think; it evokes some nice mental imagery, but is a tad long-winded, and offers too many different scenes. (Like: is it a silent orchard, or velvet gardens?)
it should be slimmed-down a bit, and should try to stick to one primary image, rather than attempting to embrace so many unrelated ones. The last line was a nice wrap-up though. I give it an 'A' for effort, a 'B-" for coherency.
Reply:I don`t know who has written this poem, but the poem is boring.
Reply:Gawddddddddddddddddddddd. I HATE poetry. It is a waste of letters and space. Its like blah, blah, blah, yadda, yadda, yadda. The End...................
