Sleep Whispers

Missing image

Liquid gold
lemon drops,
shower down
Sun beams,
touching souls.

Memories blister
like salt,
burning wounds
cut deep,
tears fall.

Quietude dreams
caress hearts,
calm peace
nothing soother,
sleep whispers.

    I see you found out what the contest was about and met with the challenge very well yourself. This was a challenge. I think I have always taken nouns for granted but after this I won't. You have wonderful imagery in this poem.

    Very nicely done. And I was able to find any words I wasn't sure of --nounage-- on www.onelook.com/ . That link has been a very valuable utility during the contest since different dictionaries don't always include all definitions or reflect worldwide usages. I think you may be the first person to use --like-- and --nothing--

    This is a very relaxing, dreamy poem. Thanks for enterring

    AMAZING!!!

    WOW!! Terrific job!!! I thought about attempting this, but I honestly don't think I could do it!!! IF I was even able to, it would never come out sounding as smooth and elegant as this!!
    This is truly amazing!!! Better scoot those trophy's over, I see another one coming your way!!! Karen
