Beware the sky, of sun’s last light
When the trolls come out to play
They vanish, into the ebony night
Tis then, you should stay away

Nighttime comes, and so they wake
There’s no chance to be turned to stone
You’ll feel them, as the ground does quake
Best to leave them, by themselves, alone

They’ll wander about the darkened land
You can bet they’re looking for trouble
For they seem to think they are so grand
Perhaps, I need to burst their bubble

Get them to think the day has passed
Lure them, into the bright of the sun
Stop them dead, their faces, aghast
I’ll do this each day, til there are none

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

Covered in Constellations ~ #NaPoWriMo #AprilWriting

Nighttime lets me flourish
I stand alone, under the moon

Looking up, in wonder
I know I’ll find them soon

Brilliant, in the blackened sky
Fainter, at crack of morn

Lights of a million fantasies
In the evening sky, are born

I am covered in constellations
Bathing, in shining stars

Watching, as they sparkle
Like the sun, on a reservoir

Lights aglow above me
Tis Heaven’s chandelier

These are the ones, I know, in my heart
Will always, chase away my drear
