Morning To Night...Marbles Poem by elysabeth faslund

Morning To Night...Marbles

Rating: 5.0


Jays scrapbook blue
Between cloud feathers
Of sky...
No rain promises kept.

Sun's morning has
Indented night a tad
Drastic...and sculpted
It into a Day...shadows

Peek-a-Boo evolutionary
Heroes...trees, buttercups,
Cats, me, you...
And, finding our sunlit dome

Pleasant...we tuck it into a
Pocket, like a prized marble...
Knowing, that after supper,
We'll place it on Night's

Satin sheets.

Elysabeth, this is great. The fracturing and reassembling of lines works so well and gives a sort of staccato effect. The narrative is great as a theme for a poem and the structure of it works really well.
