In A Mountain Meadow

Missing image

       perfect is the night

       to sink in tall grass

       oblivious to all

       but the indigo sky

       and stars above us

    Spectacularly done!

    The back ground sets the mood,the words paint the picture ... and i might add the sight of falling stars is liken to a BEAUTIFUL sunrise or sunset,and i would bet if seen from "your special place" it too would be spectacular!

    I love this!

    But now what can I do!
    For we are both
    in the same contest
    and I loved your poem too!

    This is beautiful in its simplicity. By that I mean it paints a picture we can all relate to and love. Well done and good luck my friend!

    a beautifully soothing picture you paint. I dare say you must be quite good at haiku's. Good luck in the contest.

    Even without the image, you words paint the entire scene well. Perhaps an even better one. I would have liked to have seen more than 20 words here. The contests for short poems are becoming a bit constrictive in imagination I think. Anyway, good luck in the contest.

    This is short and sweet but certainly doesn't lack anything in imagery or emotion. Your soft side never fails to show through in everything you pen. Good luck to you in the contest!

    I like the image this paints. It seems fitting. So calm and serene. All you need now is a quilt, 2 glasses and a bottle of wine. Good luck girl!
