2010 QUILL AWARD - BEST POEM STRUCTURED |
| Canyons of Light ** Image ID #1650896 Unavailable ** A lambent glow glistens off dragon scale windows, rainbow hued in the morning radiance, a play of light and dark in the caverns below... A waking city stretches into its daily routine, hoarding it's treasure of people who scurry about... The sun meanders lazily across the sky, each minute painting new cave art on the towering edifices , unappreciated by the inhabitants, but beautiful in the eyes of the universe. Like a fledgling pushed from its nest, the sun withdraws it's luminous hands - but the city shines on... an inner glow a self assurance illuminates the darkness and proclaims its independence. A light in the darkness. A promise to the future. Notes Thank you for taking the time to read my words. Please, if you're going to rate this, leave a comment.
