Painted By The Masters Hand

A mighty wind rushes in a hue of twilight
Dancing wistfully upon the blue moonlit sea
Where white doves of peace take unto flight
And the moonlights dusky shadow follows me

The pale moon peaks through a sovereign sky
It dully answers unto night times call
Touching beauty where only angels fly
And shines upon the vibrant leaves of fall

As the moon hides beneath morning clouds
The orange sunrise begins to shine its face
With the warmth of glory that it shrouds
And wraps you in It’s soft quiet embrace

As the most beautiful day begins to draw nigh
The gentle yellow sun lays down it’s sweet head
Beneath a blanket of stars, that sings loves lullaby
Tucked away for the night in a cloud covered bed

The paint brush of this vibrant lovely world
is painted in place by Gods great demand
The one who’s paintbrush can make everything pearled
And is held in none other, than the masters hand

In a list

    Nice flow and soft rhyme that felt like an evenings breeze. I know the ABAB schemes are difficult not end up being forced. The poem is reminiscent of those of an older generation.. A style that appeals to me, i might add.

    Not sure it really needed that last verse..

    The Master and only the Master paints the perfect sky. Very good poem. I have a question in the third verse and the second line, did you mean sunrise instead of sunset? You had just mentioned the moon hiding beneath the MORNING clouds so I wondered about that. I don't mean to be critical and that may be the way you intended it. If so that's OK. I did enjoy the poem because I do think the master is a great painter.
    Blessings,

    Bravo!

    I am breathless, not just sleepless...lol, anyhoo, I seen so much imagery for the contest, It's ashame religion could offend and start debates, because it's not about denominations but The Master and His touch, His creation, because your last stanza sums it up for all of the beauty you wrote in this. Excellent, I bookmarked this one. Blessings.

    A relationship with God does not necessarily consist of any one religion. I just want to be careful not to offend those of faith that believe differently than me.

    Your last stanza is lovely and should be included as the whole of the poem itself. In that one stanza, I think the word master should be capitalized, but that's just me.
    This is a gorgeous entry, one that has many different facets of beauty and brilliance. Thank you so much for taking the time to enter, and I wish you all the best.
    Love,
