Night, The Elegant Lady Poem by elysabeth faslund

Night, The Elegant Lady

Rating: 5.0


Night. The gentle hush on
Tiptoe, looking here...
Looking there...finding
Leaves on the ground

Which will be the coolness
Of dew in the morning.
Little creatures have gone
To bowers of grass under

Huge branches, blown
Down years before when
Night hosted a hurricane.
Nature's meticulous

Pruning. This night there
Will be nothing for the small
To fear. Quietness. Calm.
Night is getting the table

Of Morning dressed with
Elegant, silver, dew...for
Little things, birds, to sip.
Night cares for each, her own.

Elysabeth, This is very beautiful, soothing and has serenity; also has a romantic touch. Reminds me of Shelley's(?) moon walking the night in her silvery shoon. Love, Margery.

This is beautiful: rich imagery, elegant wording, and just a touch of the eerie. Great work, 'Lisbeth.
