The sun had left to darkness the reflecting sea
And the sunset gave the night to you and me
That we watched from the harbor,
The masts’ rigging weaving an arbor
Of love. The night yielded up silhouettes I cared no longer to see
While I gazed on you in the harbor glow. Some moments suffice for eternity
EXPLANATORY NOTE: Dear visitors to my site: Your each visit means so much to me, and when you “like” one of my posts it makes my evening (I usually post late at night, my time). You may have noticed a recent flurry of posts–sometimes even two a day. This is not a sprint of new creation. I am revising some old(er) poems with an aim of assembling a collection to send out for publication. To no small degree, I weigh the response my poems get from the internet to gauge whether I will include them in my collection. In general, when I get a favorable response from the net, I, too, prefer the given poem, personally. So I think the net is an accurate metric to consider when I make my final determination about whether to include or scrap a poem from the ultimate collection. So thank you each and every one for taking the time to visit this site. Your visits and even more, your feedback, are so much appreciated! Sorry if lately I’ve been sending a plethora of scribblings into your inboxes.
