I Think Light Breaks Poem by Sandra Fowler

I Think Light Breaks

Rating: 5.0


your eyes have burned the time to filigree.
Nothing is left of light's necessity.
Silence has interlocked us both in lace.
Great trees are fighting darkness for their space.
Eternal whiteness decorates the grass.
Leaves skim distance like ornaments of glass.
Is there a moon for such a heavy sky?
I think light breaks somewhere without a cry.

I feel most of your poems reflect the nature's glory. You must be a nature worshiper, it sounds like.

It's a very lovely poem Sandra, A moon for such a heavy sky? not only light the heart too breaks? not only eyes, the whole body burns with such heavy lines? I am still struggling for my vacation? after reading your poem the nostalgia increased.Thanks.

Exquisite. Enlightened. Excellent. Words that suit your poetry the best, in my opinion. I often have a certain association brought by your poem: in this case it is the melody of Ennio Morriccone 'Chi Mai', poignant yet undescribably beautiful.Thanks for sharing.10+.... Amary.
