*I will now include vocabulary definitions to help aid in the understanding of my constructions which might be called "poems". I will do this from now on.


A Glint Of Light (repost with vocabulary aid)

A glint of light crepitates

throughout the violaceous skies,

disappearing into the gloam of tomorrow.

In less than a fractured second,

the light was gone.

Left were only its vestiges

to fuel our sorrow

as the hint of night awaits.
