Twilight's half light
soft touch
silent even tide
flow
fills the air
with serene night sounds.
Middle earth
flight of solitude
drifts amorously,
ever present in time
and space.
Touching all
touching none.
But, feel the current
of life out of time.
Touch the gentle hint
of fable stories
untold or forgotten
by the ancient story telling creed.
Never fear
this twilight world
it calls to the soul
that seeks
other world things.
Seeks answers
not found in mortal time.
Listen and hear
the quiet whispers
as life touches
those moments
in space, not noticed
by this ever moving world.

This poem is truly wonderful. The imagery is excellent. However, I feel that this poem isn't about the Twilight Series by Stephenie Meyer. This poem is amazing, but it wasn't what I was looking for.
All the best,

This piece was very nicely written. very elegant. A good use of language. You painted a very vivid picture here. excellent imagery. I liked the line,
"Never fear
this twilight world
it calls to the soul"
I see why this piece has won a couple of honorable trophies. Thank you so much for entering my contest and I wish you the best of luck. -
I like the description of the moment captured and the stillness of life in here (as a poem). Beautiful!

This is serene. I love the evening imagery, and I noticed a lot of assonance on "time". Very pretty thoughts, dear. Good luck!
