Mesmerized below
Earth watches the night light shine
As one with the day

I
watch, as
fire falls
from up above,
in the pitch of night.
Brightening dark heavens,
painting the sky; ambience
sets the mood for lovers below.
Nestled, beneath the stars, they embrace
as the heat continues to spark within

Glow bright, as world’s collide
Seek out the shadows of night
Covered in clouds, I cannot see
The dimming of your light
Earth has overshadowed you
Only darkness on your face
Until the sun reclaims the sky
All is not well, in outer space
Moon set slowly, do not leave
Your face, I need to see
For only you can understand
The emptiness, inside of me

In a dream, she sails
To faraway places
Hoping, at last
To find out what space is
A bag fully packed
She reaches for the sky
Balloons, shaped like planets
Will help her to fly
A billion stars fill the night
Oh! How they shine!
A little girl and her dreams
How I wish they were mine…

There’s a fire in the sky,
A blaze in the night;
The phoenix has risen,
A harrowing sight.
Out of the ashes,
She burns like a flame;
Dare not touch her,
You’ll not be the same.
Anger has plagued her,
She’s out on a tear;
No mercy does she hold,
You better beware.
She’ll scald like acid,
Her touch is sure death;
Like a funeral pyre,
She’ll steal your last breath.
Coveting daylight,
She blocks out the sun
Engulfing, surrounding
There’s nowhere to run.
As she savages the land,
With a spark she does maim
Sad to say, we have only
Us humans to blame….
**Authors Note: The incredible picture above was taken by my friend Sharon. This was the sky, down the shore in NJ, last night. Can you see the face in the fiery clouds? I chose to believe it was a phoenix, although I must admit it looks more devilish…
