Search Party

In flesh of night, melon skies bled,
oozing in the deepest of unknown,
fragile fingers stretched above tiptoes,
a plea, to the one in white and red

Powerful lens, the keeper’s eye,
emit light in darkest of corners,
in fog, her lantern hung by hope,
of promise, her tears he would dry

Fireflies lit a path where she wept,
knees weak, she stumbled on down,
stripped her dress to wrap him in,
heart to heart, out to sea they swept

………….tears gone dry

Emotions sail high
"Smiling faces I can see, but not for me,
I sit and watch as tears go by."
I'm so glad your have "gone dry"

Christine, I love the "melon skies" that "wept" and the whole first stanza that captures gestures, intent and atmosphere. In this poem, the dramatic tension is effectively built until the last line.

I have to unfold this in my head, Christine,
for it rushes in and floods my senses and my thinking;
here, you see exceptionally and communicate with such quality.

"In flesh of night, melon skies bled..."
A powerful opening line and a powerful story. The elements of hope, of a search party, of a search light of a rescue attempt where "tears gone dry"
Great writing.

Awww Sweet Christine, this is indeed heart wrenching and bittersweet for to have experienced this kind of love....the kind where you don't want to live without your hearts desire, is what you have captured so well. Prose and picture blend velvety smooth and though sad it is also a confirmation of love. Well done Chrissie.
