The Day Is Nearly Done Comments

A compelling and descriptive composition written with amazing eloquence. Very powerfully and movingly penned with conviction. Thanks for sharing and do remain enriched.

In townscapes caught in the unnatural glare The false solace of man-made brightness; Comfort and anguish mingle together Bedpartners in unlikely clasp Trying to cancel out mortal peaks and troughs. crumbs of comfort......... very descriptive but somehow sad. shall we love all innocently especially the poor children of the world. then we will be able to smile and be happy. tony
