They’ll deliver a package, but it’s a mystery to whom

I’m hopeful she’ll like it, cause it’s covered in blooms

I had to make a choice, a Secret Santa I became

Can’t tell anyone who it is, that’ll ruin the game!

Storm clouds gather, drowning light

Red, with a fire, burning bright

Lightning strikes, forms a power

Hell unleashed, upon this hour

Nowhere to turn, nowhere to run

This beast, engulfs the midday sun

Untamed, fangs bared, roaring about

No way to douse it, can’t put him out

He covets the skies, desires now met

Wicked is he, this firestorm threat

Dressed in black, like the velvet night

She walked to the edge of the boards

Reflections of stars, shined with a light

That captivated, moved her toward

The waters, mesmerized by her, were calm

She‘d lost them fast, in her dreams

For the stars were her one and only balm

Visions, she called them, her ethereal beams

She watched, as each one twinkled above

And again, as from the skies, they fell

Asteria, Goddess of the Stars, twas her love

That caught them, in the magic of her spell

 

January Writing Prompt – As she walked to the end of the boards, the stars spoke to her – Day 2/31

One can never anticipate, what may happen next

Resolutions, can cause us to be more perplexed

Still, life is an enigma, from which we can grow

Fitting the pieces together, is never easy, though

Colleen is back and it’s a New Year, and a new month and that means…Poet’s Choice!! My words this week are Fragile and Breeze.  Remember, you can only use synonyms to write your poetry!

Written as a Shadorma, my synonyms are Delicate and Wind.


Delicate
With colorful wings
Fluttering
Against wind
Swept away with the current
Returning in spring
