In The Hush Of Eve Poem by Valsa George
In The Hush Of Eve
In the hush of a fading twilight eve
Heard the passionate crooning of a dove
Under the eaves, it sat close to her love
What delight, that sound instantly gave
Sudden was the change it could impart
Brought forth a spurt of spontaneous delight
Lifting away all my sadness and regret,
It fell like rain into my lovelorn heart.
The heavens soon turned azure blue
In joy, my heart began to leap
It generated in me emotions too deep
Before me all beauty came into view.
I saw pearls of bright sheen on trees,
Resting wobbly on the edge of leaves
Felt the scent of opening flowers,
Fanned in bouts of wind and breeze
Watched the evening covering in shrouds
And the day paving way to night
In darkness, fireflies dancing in delight
And the moon riding in the palanquin of clouds
In the open, I sat long like a sculptured figure
Breathing the scent of the perfumed air
Experiencing a new gaiety in profuse measure
My heart brimming with umpteen desire
beautiful poem; /// love brings unity unity, always the togetherness is beautiful
It's really a gift to have the tender feelings of the mind been roused by the crooning of a dove and to have been hailed to emotional heights. It is certainly the symptom of greatness of a mind to sit long immersed in nature's rythm and to feel brimmed with umpteen desire. Thank you Valsa George
'It fell like rain into my lovelorn heart' - aha, so nice and soothing! 'And the moon riding in the palanquin of clouds' - aha, so poetic flight of thoughts, I can only exclaim in joy rather than write a word or two! 'In the open, I sat long like a sculptured figure' - an example of perfection of translating thoughts into words! An excellent poem,10/10 from me!
Thank you... I was in need of beauty being spilled over my day today! ! ! Lovely as usual, my dear Valsa. And I have a thing about doves===they are building a nest in the evergreen in my front yard- -so I get twice blessed today. 10+++++++++++++++++++++
Valsa, what a gift—no matter how many times we may experience it—for something in nature to enlighten our seeing, and you’ve captured such a moment well in this poem. The title, The Hush of Eve, is mellifluous and evocative. My favorite line is, I sat long like a sculptured figure—which conveys the pleasure and the wanting to make it last. -Glen
It is a pleasure to read an account of a blisfull evening through your pen and walk the place through your eyes, and feel all the tender emotions through your heart. All we have to do is to keep our hearts open to such beauty. thanks Valsa.
maybe " she heard" at start of line 2? i'm not sure who is speaking of whom. it's not one of my favorite poems of yours. but i enjoyed these lines: " And the day paving way to night In darkness, fireflies dancing in delight" At first i thought this would be a poem written by Adam about his joy over Eve keeping her mouth shut, especially about apples! bri ;)
