Where light is lost

your winning poem. Good one, MrAlptraum; enjoyed this read tremendously.

Yes the winner.
Glad you liked it Grace.

I'm not sure this line makes sense: "Growthless of beauty." Should it be something like "devoid of beauty"? If I were you I wouldn't worry too much about the rhyme and focus instead on giving the images more flow. At the moment they feel a bit clipped.
The last two lines are brilliant. I love the simple, haunted picture it evokes of the narrator falling asleep in shadow, as light rapidly disappears. The comma in the first line of that verse could be removed though.
Overall this has the elements of a really good poem. I like thinking about the exact nature of this landscape you've created, if it's all simply a metaphor for drifting into unconsciousness, or is intended on some level to be real. Please don't tell me which it is if you know; I prefer unsolved mysteries.
All my criticisms are JMHO. Thanks for the read.

Yeah maybe, 'growthless' was a word i had thought about. I just wanted a word that connects with 'land' and 'soil'. I adopt a rhyming scheme too often into my poems i think, it limits creativity. Thanks for the advice and comment.

Soils rich in sorrow
No wind pays duty --painted green with truth,keep going!

Thank you Rakhi, i will! :)

Got a shiver from this one. Its possesses a unique beauty. An elegant piece.

Cheers, man. Forgot this poem existed.
