AlchemyA Poem by Ann Elise MonteSunset over the Yarra river.I step into the waning light, The Mikado ringing in my ears. A cool stone balustrade Polishing my fingertips. The river glimmers in the twilight, Set ablaze by dying sunbeams. Gilded ripples rolling gently Across the tranquil surface. Those gilt-framed few minutes, Between the daytime and the night, When for once the dead brown Yarra Transmutes as if by stone. © 2011 Ann Elise Monte
