The evening has such romance.
Peace Of Writing In The Eve
by Regina Elliott
Sunday eventide, on the slope
of the fire-hued mountain,
owls emerge with candlelight
eyes from the pines' boughs,
I'm sitting by an open window,
the peace of writing in the eve.
Hunter's moon, so settled and
goldenrod,
the young days of autumn's
presence,
sipping cinnamon hot cider,
Hounds baying in the smoky
valley,
songbirds taking an evening
vow of silence.
Writing of bygone friendships
and gained faith,
harvest of bittersweet
recollections,
surviving parent,
a ghost of memories,
of loving words not spoken,
wishing to have been missed -
just as a childhood image
of jumping into a tall mound
of blushed leaves,
I part my lips to smile,
in the peace of writing in
the eve. ~
