Crimson whispers fall,
soft breath carries gold away,
silence holds the dusk.

I love the soft touch this brings. The whisper very much in line. With the soft delivery and the meaning. The breath carrying the gold. I like that. I like how silence was personified. The hand holding the dusk makes the world feel — and it is — feels so vast. All the very best of luck on the challenge Tim 🤗❤️
This is perfect. Sounds like a gentle autumn breeze
Crimson whispers falling, I love that!
