In the pages of this book, is where it begins

When evening falls, tis there, I fit in

Watching the stars that gently glisten

In the dark of night, I shall sit and listen

As the moon recites with much detail

How the sun and the planets all prevail

He tells of how, the birds do try

To reach him, far up in the sky

How the twilight shines, in all its glory

Oh, how the moon does tell his story

I could stay here, with him, evermore

For his light always reaches, to my very core

And in this place, I find sweet tranquility

Lost to the moon, in a realm of possibility

Goodnight, sweet orb, as I now close this book

Out the window, I stare, yes, for just one more look

The lovely Helene of Willow Poetry has challenged us with “What do you See?”.  You may write a poem, haiku, tanka or short story that represents what you see or feel within you.  More info can be found in the link below.


A
Sentry
Vigilant
Over oceans
The guard of her realm
Her beauty marks the shore
Nothing comes close to her grace
As she sits, perched upon the rocks
While the mighty sea below her, bows
Knowing she is the queen of her domain

Shadows trace the figure
Cast upon an empty sea
She stands against
The pallid sky
A blended symphony

Light against the muted tones
It draws her ever near
Calling her back
Into the realm
She slowly disappears

The sun begins to shimmer
Casting an ethereal glow
Gracefully
She glimmers within
The circle of her halo

A lantern is no longer lit
Near this cell, where I must sit

Darkness plagues my every day
Yet in this narrow space I stay

Golden skies, in this empty place
Soar across, in an endless race

Yet, I cannot see them with my eyes
I see them in my mind and try

To recreate a land once cherished
Where land and trees forever flourished

And flora once did overwhelm
When I was ruler of this realm

Neptune’s Muse

Neptune, Neptune's Muse, Night Owl Poetry, oceans, poems, poetry, realm, Roman mythology, Salacia

Contentment fills her restless mind

Slowly she steps, without care

Unafraid of the man who is leading her blind

Neptune awaits for her there

She colors his realm with a gentle caress

As he heaves a watery sigh

Her exquisiteness he must now possess

Underneath his liquid sky

Salacia, beautiful queen, sublime

He has fallen for her ruse

Quenched forever in perfect rhyme

She is one with her god, his muse
