Forgotten Light

Moments of Silence Acrostic Challenge

Stately and silent, the swans swim languidly within my

Imagination, their cygnets milling about

Like children who cannot grasp the horrors in the depths below, bright

Eyes darting like dappled butterflies on the wing. I hear but do

Not see my quiet surroundings, the

Cool lake air on my skin reviving

Echos of hazy summer memories and forgotten light.

Acrostic
