The clouds
scattered
hastily hurried
to their heavenly corners
among the realm
of a pastel-pink horizon
Where
we dwelled
so often
and spoke without words.
And yet
our hearts understood
beyond reason
and earthly wisdom
Knowing
that this, was meant to be

Hi James

I enjoyed this one - you have some lovely descriptions here.
I feel that sentence structure could be improved. Suggestions to follow and perhaps some trimming:

L 1&2 don't make a complete sentence, therefore a capital for hastily is not necessary.


[And as] The clouds scattered
hastily hurried
to their heavenly corners
among the realm
of a pastel-pink horizon,
[W]where we dwelled
so often
and spoke without words. (full stop)
And yet
our hearts understood
beyond reason
and earthly wisdom,
[K]knowing
that this, was meant to be

[How could it not?]

I personally fee the last line is not needed as you have shown this question in your poem.
I love 'pastel pink corners'

Hello James,

I really love the mobility and character you gave the clouds. I see you have your own nn-punctuation signature. Personally I love using punctution.

I do agree with Eisa's suggestions especially in the ending line.

I will return for another look.

Lovely rendezvous

dani

and spoke without words.
the entire poem is centered on this line and to be honest it is a very big cliche. It does not work for me at all. sorry.
