- Final notes: I feel so happy about this contest. I received a decent amount of entries, and noticed some exceptional entries. I did have a hard time coming up with the first three, because each poem is indeed a powerhouse. But, i had to go with what stirred me most, and the first poem, "Radiance", contained so much beauty and incredible imagery. I could, "see" this beautiful light she described in my mind's eye so clearly.
The second poem, "light", is quite a hearfelt poem that tugged at my soul.
I want to thank Faithbound, for reaching deep, and allowing out such breveity and beauty.
The third poem, "Between Winter and Sun", is
written with masterly talent. Word usuage, excellent, and I loved how unique it is. I really connected to this poem and I think many will.
Please take the time to read, the winners. There all very talented. The HM's are not in any particular order. I loved them all, and will definetly check on those poets and there
amazing talents.
Thanks to all who participated, and always be in...light!

Are we to use the word "as is" or some form of the word, e.g., lightness, lightning, lighting, etc.

Love-Light
Light emits from your fingertips
As they outline my waiting lips
Electric caresses, your finger compresses
Sounds that my mouth expresses.
As we meld through the night
It feels oh so right
I now know that your heart's full of light!
