front porch memories

 

 

 

muted in smoky blue

mountains sing softly, in

 

no

     hurry
             to kiss
                       the mist
                                    goodbye

    this piece is quite poetic...concise and ephemeral

    if it were mine, i would change mountain to plural and sings to singular, thereby creating a larger environment...if you know what i mean. lol

    thank you for this poignant entry

    Wonderful brevity here without losing anything regarding beauty, impact and poetic quality! I liked this, and even though I'm not very fond of poetry that seems to "drift" across the page, somehow I think it works here.

    Really a lovely "image or snap-shot quality" about this poem! Thank you for a lovely entry.

    Smoke in the hills..mist shrouded mountains
    Applachian scenes...I see it. I'm just down from you a bit but I do see it out my window often.

    i love the 'image' quality of this, so gorgeous, i love short, 'mood' poems like this best of luck the title sets up the scene nicely...

    This seems like a lingering moment of trying to remember what it looks like when you are gone...

    I like the descent of words and the way you formatted them. Love the opening line as well as I sit with mug in hand.

    [time for silent reflections
    as the coffee warms my hands]

    this is what I would change...just from the feel I got

     

    *hug*

     

    you *rock*
