Night appears and chases day

Stands to watch the starlight play

Noticing one that outshines the rest

Reflecting, a glow, upon her chest

Wraps her in stardust, ever true

She watches, as mountains fade from view

No longer does the sun remain

Darkness, once again, shall reign

As she blends in with the midnight sky

And stars gently twinkle, before they die

For she is the one who chased away light

Beauty now gone, from her blinded sight

Once she was a beacon, to shine the way

Now, in the dark, filled with dismay

Hoping one day, she will shine, again

She can only wait, for she knows not when

She lets me know when she is near

Her footsteps in the hallway, clear

Doors that open when no one’s home

She always knows when I’m alone

And yes, at times, she’ll find a tree

As a cardinal, there to comfort me

Her song so sweet, to my own ear

My guardian angel, forever dear

I write in a genre

Oft misunderstood

I’ve tried to explain it

The best that I could

These aren’t just words

That float in my head

They are my soul

Releasing instead

The passion inside me

Pounding deep in my heart

I am a writer, a poet

And my words I impart

On all who will listen

This is my true devotion

Flowing out from within

Like my endless emotion

A chance awaits him

Sweet nectar welcomes his lips

Uniting in love

What lies in wait, ethereal, shimmers

That send chills up and down your spine

Masked by sunlight’s colorful prism

She blends with the tree, so divine

Moving about, in perfect symmetry

Each thread, woven with expertise

A spinneret, is all she requires

As she patiently waits, by the trees

To capture that which she can enjoy

Poor moth, his death is most certain

By the simple thread of a spider’s trap

On his life, she has closed the curtain
