I like the word 'drenches" as it is a pleasing mnd picture. Again you have a great presentation with this stunning picture. Also the way the light beams melt into the black is lovely. Smiles. Giddy

After reading your poem, I can see and feel the last light of day. Your descriptive words create a clear scene of the end of day. "Obscured miracle" is a perfect last line.

That's so true, when there is a different intensity in the light, then how is one going to tell a truly ripened wheat, one can be deceived into believing different things, well done, blessings Roy

I like that the light "drenches." It mixes the visual of the last lingering light with the tangible sensation of wetness with the verb "drenches." Perhaps this is an example of synesthesia.

Oooo, I like this one.
Your first 2 lines are stunningly perfect and flow fantastically.

The satori is beautiful. I'm not sure why you used obscured and miracle but that could just be me.
Your verb choice- "drenches" is also stunning and really helps paint your picture.
Good luck we with awesome entry!

    the last light of day
    drenches golden blades of wheat ?
    obscured miracle

    The last line (satori) means two things... obscure as nobody see is at this moment and obscure as in dark night. Beautiful nature scenes go unnoticed sometimes but that doesn't mean they are less beautiful :)

    Thank you very much for the kind words, helpful feedback, and review.

Very nice 5-7-5 poem. Your use of color and shadow in the artwork that you selected compliments your verse. The two elements pair perfectly well together. Well crafted. Good job!
