Free Verse Poetry Contest contest entry




shades of starlit night
are calling me
to stroll through
softly muted meadows

verdant greens strewn
with flowered majesty
welcome as feet
tred on moonbeam pathways

fragrance wafting
on gentle breezes
sweetly touch my face and hair
permeating the very essense
of my soul

awakened memories filter
through the channels
of my mind
consciously aware
of all that I behold

peace and tranquility
are mine
serenity intertwines
and clings to faith
eternally bound by love

grace speaks clearly
her simple voice to hear
assuring the heart
of her ever-abiding
presense, purpose, and promise

shades of starlit night
are calling me
to stroll through
softly muted meadows
