Tonight’s quarter moon, through the trees, in my backyard.

Celestial light, so golden, in the night

You shine brilliantly, our summer light

With Jupiter to our left, ashimmer

And Venus to our right, aglimmer

The skies, filled, with worlds, unknown

You guide us to them, from your throne

 

Author’s Note:  Tonight’s sky is quite the story teller!  To the left of the moon is Jupiter, to the lower right is the star Spica and lower still is Venus, and above is the star Arcturus!  I hope you get a chance to see them all  🙂

Swallowed by Darkness ~ #freeverse #moon

You disappeared, out of sight

Swallowed by the darkened sky

A sliver, you couldn’t hold your ground

Even Venus, with her brilliance

Was no match for the storm

On this clouded summer night

 

Author’s Note:  I was able to catch a glimpse of the young moon and Venus, until the storm clouds took over, and they disappeared into the night.

A Creature of Poetry ~ #poetry is #life

The bewitching hour has finally come

When I am no longer feeling numb

The time I envision, the perfect scene

Not ordinary visions, but words, fill my screen

Imagery exposed, with the lightest touch

These are moments, I treasure so much

A time, when I can fall, into the night

That caresses my soul, and holds me tight

The moonlit skies, the twinkle of stars

This is the time that takes me so far

Gathering thoughts, I feed off the words

A creature of poetry, longing to be heard

A Lullaby of Strings ~ #poetry

She serenades the sun to sleep
With a lullaby, from her strings

Her music floats, into the air
Takes flight, on angel’s wings

It floats among the heavens
On the tails, of passing clouds

As sunlight fades into the night
She is blanketed, with a shroud

Of darkness, it settles over her
Yet, she continues to play her song

Knowing soon the moon will rise
Tis who she plays for, all along

Venus and the Moon 7/15/18

Look up to the sky, see Venus and the moon

A sight that will surely make lover’s swoon

Snuggled up close, bright lights in the dark

Two celestial orbs, ignite an everlasting spark
