A Whisper Of Sunshine Poem by Sandra Fowler

A Whisper Of Sunshine

Rating: 4.9


We drink the evening in a frosted glass.
Nothing about the music is profane.
Your eyes hold all emotion very quiet.
Fey Shadows stretch landscapes beyond belief.

A whisper of sunshine behind the hill
Keeps back a little winter for the soul.
Smoke from the old house writes our names in space.
Just by a breath our time is blown away.

The boat of twilight is ephemeral.
One fragile touch destroys its frail, blue sail.
The fate of longing is a memory.
Friend, flesh and blood cannot inherit dusk.

A gentle classic. A whisper of sunshine behind the hill Keeps back a little winter for the soul. As does this poem. I would say the art at its finest! Patrick xx

Sandra, your poetry is in a class in which I am not accustomed to reading. However after reading your work several times and discovering your true feelings coming through, it all unfolds so beautifully. It’s well worth the effort, you are truly gifted.

Music, Soul, Nature, sacred Thoughts are always present in your poetry, Sandra.And how beautifully you can interact with them all! If you allow me, I'll highlight this line: 'Your eyes hold all emotion very quiet.' I think this is what's always happening with you. Love, Maria
