    Driving through the long journey

    To see the dusk wrapping the sun

    To give way for the 

    vibrant moon

    Is what a God creation is….

     

    The stretch of golden canvas 

    With a touch of colours cloud has

    Just roaming like if it wants to cover the journey

    Is what a God creation is…

     

    The touch of golden rays on those traveller

    Makes it more attractive to capture

    And me as a poet keep on thinking

    Is what God creation is…

    Good morning and thank you for sharing your poem with me.  You have some beautiful lines and the mood and flow of the poem is lovely.  I do think you could tighten it and add to the rhythmic flow of the poem and I’ve made a few suggestions alongside the lines, below.

    The suggestions are just that – please consider them or reject them as you feel best – there are, as I’ve said, some very moving and meaningful moments in this poem and I am delighted you shared it with me.

    Your friend in poetry, Susan

    Driving through the long journey

    To see the dusk wrapping the sun (would omit “the”)

    To give way for the (I think you might want to extend the image of the line before…”To see dusk wrapping the sun / in shadows making way for the vibrant moon…”)

    vibrant moon

    Is what a God creation is….

     

    The stretch of golden canvas 

    With a touch of colours cloud has (touched by a “rainbow” or other descriptive word here –  of colors) (clouds roam as if they want to cover – not sure what ‘the journey” means in this context)

    Just roaming like if it wants to cover the journey

    Is what a God creation is…

     

    The touch of golden rays on those traveller (Golden rays touch travelers / capturing what? – as a poet I keep thinking this / is what God’s creation is)

    Makes it more attractive to capture

    And me as a poet keep on thinking

    Is what God creation is…
