Comment from Lise Deangelo

Excellent

This is a beautiful poem and excellently-written. I am often out side in the dark at the moment because it's winter and it gets dark early. I love seeing everything in your poem. I love the background colour too. I love it when the nightsky is deep blue. Thanks so much for sharing :) Lise

I have done what you write about.
I try to appreciate things more evey single day.
Not carpe diem more like stop and smell the roses which is what you say so well.
Beautiful write.

Very wonderful imagery so well described. Wonderful flow. It's a sweet longing that rings at the end when you're finally aware of what's missing in the 'almost perfect night'. Very nice job.

A lovely write, Carolyn. I could feel myself out there looking at the stars with my arms feeling a slight chill. Excellent descriptions. I could envision it all so clearly. And such lovely images they are! I love how you ended it. Fave line ... "Shivers of delight create a slight chill". :)

Beautiful poem, Carolyn!
