Poet of the Sky
by Laryalee Fraser (Age: 68)
copyright 04-10-2002

Age Rating: 7 to 127

Within a flow of amber ink,
the Sun takes measure of the day
just passed; she fills the open sky
with colors of her twilight verse.
Embedded in her dusky lines
are thoughts that rose to whirlwind heights,
with yours and mine and everyone's
portrayed in shades of vibrancy.

Expressions of our fears and doubts
have wafted up; she captures them,
reveals an insight far beyond
our comprehension. Soothed by rhyme,
our pain of personal defeat
becomes a softly muted glow
of indigo. She adds our cheers
of celebration -- streaks of red
are interspersed with fluid gold.

She writes with flawless style and grace;
our moments soar on sonnet trails
and join the rhythm of the stars.
Her journal done, she heaves a sigh.
Tomorrow is another page.

Your well-roundedness (?) in life amazes me. You know so much of so many things. Kudos! (My favorite part: a softly muted glow
of indigo)

This is sheer beauty and I know that both Apollo would be proud of your tribute to him.

Thank you all for your heartwarming comments....a friend of mine who is into Greek mythology pointed out that Diana is the moon and her twin brother, Apollo is the sun, so I am actually considering changing the gender...
(then you could have the last laugh, Bob, hee hee!).

Oh this is simply outstanding! You weave such beautiful imagery with such wisdom! Very beautiful!!!!

Very marvelous imagery and use of expressive thought.

04-10-2002 Peggy Bertrand

Excellent I love the images and how you have grasped your poem about a poet. Excellent.

The sun... She? That's a new one. Okay, so now it's the Lady of the Lake, Mother Earth, Maiden Wind, even God... sheesh... is nothing male any longer except the Devil? Heehee... just teasing. The anthropomorphism of inanimate objects is charming when done as well as this piece. I love how you incorporated the writing metaphors. "Within a flow of amber ink..." just gorgeous, Lary!

Outstanding imagery, this is just wonderful.
