Twilight's Discovery

A Poem by Allen Smuckler
"

Please read "Discovery" !st...

"

I’m smiling now at the kitchen table 

reawakening to the light, and the love
and the happiness I feel…
I dreamt last night
of the love of life fading,
into darkness and dread
as fear turned to fright.
The circle of life,
is about living the promise, and hope
of a new inspirational day.
I’ll mark on the calendar
the day of discovery
and wait for the twilight
as night turns to dawn.

Kate's review:
Allen,
Have just read this after drawing my attention to it on my 'Twilight' poem. I've responded to your comment there.

I really like the use of the word 'redwindles' .... the picture it and 'Life's prancing candle' evoke.

Beautiful imagery here of love of life fading, perhaps even to darkness, and then reawakening to light, happiness, love. The magic and beauty of life ... Him ... the circle of life ... of living.
I felt Kate Little's review of my 1968 poem, "Discovery" was better than the poem
so I decided to write a poem, using her words from her critique to create "Twilight's Discovery" (December 23, 2010). I suggested we collaborate using her and my words. This was my version that I sent to her. Next: please See "Discovering Twilight"
