Prompt ~ Poefusion's Friday 5 ~ splinter distractions molder votive punctuate
~
Even when time seems to molder
And happiness is a mere splinter
Of sepia lifetimes
~
When distractions are just a passing fancy ~
Stray music
On the wind
Chancing to punctuate
Yellowing keys
~
The lumen of a simple votive
Casts
Glittering
Plaintive light
Over tiers
Of shadows

Gemma,
I do wish for the flickering light of hope to burn for each lifetime.
Soothing, this.

Beautiful words, Gemma. Let's hope this light continues to burn for those who need it most. Very hopeful post. Have a nice day.
having recently traveled thru a great valley of melancholy,, this poem speaks volumes to me.....
I love the simplicity and the way you have blended the words. Meditative and soothing.
Lovely work. Prayerful and hopeful. The words ring with feeling. The photo is fascinating!
The words soothe in themselves.
Excellent.
.. that was beautiful breeze of blessings...
