A to Z on a Plate - E

Today line 6 in the Progressive Poem is written by Carol at Beyond LiteracyLink.

I am writing a poem a day for NaPoWriMo (#NaPoWriMo) and linking up with Margaret Simon's sharing of poems inspired by an image. (#imagepoems)

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Eventide

morning's eye peeks up 

over the edge of the blanket

shaded lids opening a bit at a time

soft light expanding to radiate

over all the field and pond

then trudges across the day

looking down it keeps track of its

progress as it draws shadows

across the land

and follows birds

until it slips back

into bed at nightfall

but before shutting out the light

one last beaming

one bit of fluffing up the clouds

in pinks and golds

before calling it quits, 

it slips a bookmark

into life's story

to pick up where it left off

tomorrow.

Would like to try your hand at a poem about Elvis?  That one should be fun!
I am posting the poems written in response to the extra license plates on Sundays when there is no letter for the A-to-Z Challenge.  Last week's poems submitted by commenters may be found at this link: Surplus Plate Poems here!
 

Do YOU have a vanity plate beginning with the letter E?  

Let me know in the comments!  Or just comment.  

I like those, too!
