Peach Sherbet Sky

Posted on December 23, 2020 by Linda Lee Lyberg

Mighty Gabriel cloud in peach sherbet sky
Kissing goodnight to low sinking sun
When waxing moon shines, rising on high
Morning for the glorious day is over, done

Kissing goodnight to low sinking sun
Angel spreads gossamer wings, taking flight
Morning for the glorious day is over, done
As Gabriel soars into the cobalt black night

Angel spreads gossamer wings, taking flight
Surrounded by a thousand twinkling stars
As Gabriel soars into the cobalt black night
Ever higher, ascending to Venus and Mars

Surrounded by a thousand twinkling stars
When waxing moon shines, rising on high
Ever higher, ascending to Venus and Mars
Mighty Gabriel cloud in peach sherbet sky

Fantastic! I just recently wrote my first pantoum in response to the d’Verse “endings” prompt (and just learned what a pantoum was that same day)… but mine didn’t rhyme like yours. This is simply lovely. Maybe I’ll go back to the pantoum form and trying one that is similar to yours 🙂
