Fragments Of A Day

This poem started to grow on 21 Mar 11 and was brought to completion this afternoon 28 Mar 11 when the final lines arrived. It is unusual in the manner of its birth, each of the lines [except for the last two] appeared individually on Twitter at random times each day and was, only later, compiled into the complete form now presented here.





Fragments Of A Day - 21 Mar 11

Drifting into a dark afternoon
Wherein some shattered fragments
Of the sundered worlds
And tattered wings against the eyes of night
Held firm
As sunlight fades fast into the starlight realm

Stardrift across an endless dark
Pinprick jewels pierce the night
Shattered shards of crystal
Illumined from within
Illuminating a path
Toward a dawn





Unusual in another way too, I almost forgot what the preceeding lines were, when each new line was formed.
This is a rather different poem - comments, as usual, are welcomed.
