Lines and Squiggles Resembling Poetry - 3. Lyric 8-6-8-6

Poetry Prompt 3

Bright flame in the midst of the lost

Surrounded by sentries—

Naked silence bearing witness

And already done in

 

Dark and slow the river beyond

Timorous reflections—

Silverfish cumulus pretense—

Adumbration of dusk

span>Poetry Prompt 3: write two stanzas of lyrics. Base it on the first emotions you remember having when you woke up this morning.
I do hate to sound blasé but day-to-day routine, when it differs little, doesn't lend itself to inspiration. This poem is based on a short journey I made just outside of the city of Boston yesterday.

Wow, i see bare trees between me and the setting sun off to the horizon. I also really like the cloud references; they are very visual as well.

 

Well done! I like it a lot

Thanks, AC. It's not the setting sun but a rival in splendor and one that you can look at directly. :) A beautiful tree in full fall colors, is the bright flame.
