Under Darkening Skies

A cool night breeze silks my shoulders
But everything seems so still.
Engine rumbles are distant, inconsequential.
The quiet reaches in and fills me
And takes me out again
To the fields under darkening skies,
To the rivers, even to the mountains,
Not so far away now.
You have been there after all,
Night breeze,
To the blurred edges of oblivion…
*
Abruptly I am returned to myself,
Awareness hurtling ever inwards.
Back to a daydreamer leaning into dusk
Wondering how the souls in their snugly lit houses
Can ignore a night like this,
A night that whispers freely
Anything is possible...

A wonderfully woven wording.
There are too many that are unaware of the pleasures of mothers natures simplicities.
as always,

Oh wow, hun. How glorious and beautiful! If ever I were to fall into a piece .. it would definitely be this one.
It is exquisite! Your descriptions capture an essence that cannot be ignored. They lift up the reader until he is flying
with you under those darkening skies; off to fields and rivers and mountains .. and by the end, he is sighing your
sighs and dreaming your dreams. Damn breathtaking, hun. There is not one line in this that I could pull out as
favoured, for each line is so delicately connected to the piece as a whole and the result is S T U N N I N G !!
Exceptional, friend, and no less than what I've come to expect from you. :)

Beautifully penned Dom. I love the night and you captured the feeling so well...it's almost mystical. The moon and stars, the sounds of the night. I can almost hear the night breathe in your poem...and your last line...indeed "Anything is possible". Loved this write, my friend.
Peace and hugs,
Laura |

| It is wonderful reading a piece inspired by what is around you and how it touches you and your appreciation for it all.So many times the who we are blinds us to the where we are.Lovely write Dom. |

Nothing beats a bit of astral travelling before bedtime! Such a beautiful dreamer you are. I love those moments so completely free of self awareness, where we ride that parabola of the world, if only for the short while before, as you so aptly put it, we 'hurtle' back into our internal recognition. Nicely penned.

Oh my dearest Dom this is gorgeous hun. WoW I could drift away on your words through the darkened skies and on a journey through the night. I want to say so much. A most descriptive & captivating piece. Your beautiful poetry captivates me every time my dear poet friend. You're a dreamer just like me *wink*
I absolutely loved this Dom. Thanks so much for sharing it with us.
