I seek not its light

~

 

 

I cast my eyes towards the sun,

beyond the darkened fence, the fielded midnight thoughts,

watching, through clouded images, knowing eventually

I will witness the birth of a new day

 

I reach with my smile in a curved line

seeking a destiny still unknown but written

in verses of future phrases,

which will come to pass…in multi-colored inks of affection

 

I send my heart on waves of scented mist,

collected from the corners of my world,

flowing free from silent words and favored gestures

of desire’s endless intentions

 

I hand my love to nature, freely, willingly…

so that it may be delivered amidst

blooming jasmine and truer promises…to you,

before another dawn’s light finds your beauty and you awake

 

I cast my eyes towards the sun…yet I seek not its light,

nor its warmth…for all I seek is you

Honestly, I didn't like this one that much. It has excellent poetic phrases and some powerful thoughts. But the structure and punctuation left me stuttering as I read it. The ellipses weren't working for me. And keep in mind if you use an ellipse there should be a space before and after it. It's used to replace words and I didn't read the words they were replacing. Maybe just seeing periods all bunched up like that scared me off

Hey, you can't like everything, and I didn't know there was supposed to be a space before and after but, I do now. : )
Thanks for reading anyway, I do appreciate all of your kindness and appreciate the constructive suggestions.

Morning Will. I'm not reviewing this yet until at least a dozen women review it first, as per the unwritten, unspoken, unheard of rule. I'm just replying to your "good morning." 😊

[willweb]

Good morning Lorry.
I should be so lucky. : )

This like most of your poems has such a hopeful tone.
"I cast my eyes towards the sun,
beyond the darkened fence, the fielded midnight thoughts,
watching, through clouded images, knowing eventually
I will witness the birth of a new day"
A beautiful pairing of the awaited dawn and the dark thoughts.
Reaching with a smile is such a wonderful expression.
"I cast my eyes towards the sun…yet I seek not its light,
nor its warmth…for all I seek is you"
Blinded by the light of beauty, so nicely stated.

Thanks so much my friend. Some stare into the darkness and see darkness, I stare into the darkness and see the light that is coming. I just always try to find the best in each situation. Thanks again my friend.

[Soren]

Amazing coincidence in that the poem I am working on is about darkness as well

[willweb]

Very cool.
