Morning Hymn / Moonlight and Mist

[Quantareau]

Morning Hymn

O morning hymns in twilight deep
Across the vernal glade,
Is met with every cooing dove
As daily vows are made.

Each sigh that's breathed upon the day
And echoed through the calm,
Soothes deep into each beating heart
As natures healing balm.

As night rolls back so silently
And morning makes her way,
Then touches every leaf that strains
To share another day.

As soft as mothers hand upon
A waking child in fright,
A symphony of woodland songs
Sing in the morning light.

O morning hymns from sleepy glade
In majesty will rise,
As still and soft as angels wings
To bless the morning skies.


Moon Light and Mist

Such magic in the moonlit mist
As though a living Goddess kissed
All that I see and feel so deep
I see her move through eyes that weep

Like stars upon the untouched snow
Each crystal finds some light to glow
And dance to unheard mystic tunes
A universe of magic moons.

Such Awe and wonder yet serene
Each moonlit night played scene by scene
Along the meadow in my heart
'Till traveling down my road we part

[Sascha Germer]

A beautifull way to frame a day
Makes thoughts grow fonder
And heart go wander

Morning hymn reminded me of singing " Morning has broken" in school assembly. Formal and irrelevant to my life.

This is a surprising association, as your poem does not convey any negative feelings to me.
Who in his right mind sings "Morning has Broken" in a school assembly? Poor kids.^^ It's a nice song though.

Thank you much Sascha, sorry for being so late in reply. I appreciate you taking the time to read and respond.

To tell the truth, I was not even attempting to be relevant to your life. Thank you anyway for reading my poem.

Thanks again. Several years after this was written, I found that beautiful place, I wish I could send you the picture.

I really should pay more attention to who posts what here.^^

You are prolific. As you have seen I get into a poetic mood sometimes, but I haven't got much experience with it. Keep it up.^^

You're welcome. Let me put it another way. You sound like a Wordsworth tribute act and nostalgia aside irrelevant to our times. To me it's the kind of poetry that prevents people reading poetry.

Art is art no matter the dispensation or time. Who cares if the form is in vogue or not. You have penned a beautiful ode to the morning. Thanks for the brief respite from the mindless drivel of the free verse, blank head poets. I like your formal construct and riveting rhyme scheme. Let's be open to all kinds of poetry on this site. Keep up the good writing, Quantareau!

Delicious unintended irony within your paragraph there virtuoso.
