Your free verse on light is 'enlightening'. You weave your words so well in your poems and always with so much meaning a spirit behind them. It is not hard to grasp your eloquent meaning.

An ambient twilight as the sun has just disappeared and the street lamp helps to light the night and if it fails we have trouble seeing in those shadows, you set the scene here an that is a wonderful photograph too, love Dolly x

This poem speaks there are many sources from which human eyes can see the light, even in absence of manmade lights; well said, well done; thanks for sharing this. ALCREATOR

This is beautifully fantastic JLR!
Even without the beautiful picture, you have done a wonderful job painting this lovely & emotional image in your readers mind. I love how you wrote your poem in such a clever way, light coming in place of the twinkling stars, etc. I almost pictured it like a giant paint brush just sweeping over the city with light.
I, like most of your poems, throughly enjoyed reading this.
Thanks for sharing,
TommyWrites~

Were you aware I wonder that some of my teaching is rubbing off on you. This could well have been an entry for the very latest class assignment. 'Metre in free verse!' Line two here is a rare example of a catalectic trochaic hexameter.

You have grabbed at the topic with both hands.

    My dear friend thank you for this validation! Right now, I find I do need the extra words of encouragement. I am learning so much from you and the Old Man upstairs willing, I will partake of your wisdom for another decade.

Nice photo and poem, JLR. The morning sky sometimes displays Venus, a very tired moon, And then the rising sun hides their light for another day.
Excellent contest entry. I like the photo too.
Good luck
Cindy

This is one of those poems where the picture and words gel so well together I have to ask, what came first, the picture or the poem? Great poem and thank you for sharing. Stay safe.
