She watches them, gather around her

Iridescent beings, like tiny snowflakes

Seeing her beauty, they surround her

This is where she should be, no mistake

With the old tree, finally fallen, she sits

Reaching down, to the water below

Trying to collect just one shining star

She knew just how far she could go

This could possibly be her last chance

To mingle with the spirits, earthbound

For the season, you see, was changing

And she would no longer be here, nor found

Standing on the garden steps
In dignified fashion, she waited
Majestic, in her satin wings
Her heart, had now deflated

As a pauper, she dressed in tatters
Her dress, was sewn from rags
How could she ever convince them?
In these clothes, she’d felt rather scrag

Though, proudly, she stood before them
There was a conflict, deep inside
She knew exactly who she was
To the others, she’d have to hide

Noble being, angel fair
So different from the rest
Unworthiness, masked by beauty
Would always feel oppressed

She flies above the astral plane
Gathering stars as she goes
A heavenly being, the sky, her reign
The universe, scattering, grows

Wings aflutter, in the night
This creature, is like no other
Galaxies born, of power and might
She is, our celestial mother

Watch, as her beauty carries along
Though, a mystery, quite arcane
She is the one, who makes us strong
The universe, is her worldly domain

The scent of lavender entices

Causing them to swarm to her

She is blissfully intoxicating

As they imbibe on her essence

Drinking in life’s pure nectar

This is my first attempt at Sue Vincent’s Photo Prompt. Every Thursday, Sue posts one of her pictures, and asks you to write based on your perception of the photo. For more info, visit Sue’s blog.

A single light, one which shines ever so brightly, graces the heavens and earth, with a single spark. She illuminates the passing of the day, while readying the oceans for the evening tides. Crepuscular rays, emitted strategically over mountains, add to the aura of her beauty. White clouds, sailing peacefully across the water, remind me of a soft comfy blanket, waiting patiently to tuck me in. All is perfect in my world, as I breathe in the closing of today, and drift into the dreams of tomorrow.
