These days have been humdrum, with all this rain

Perhaps, I should place a wager, or any kind of bet

That I can counteract Mother Nature, albeit, insane

By absconding, with the sun, without getting wet

Come lie with me
Among the wildflowers
Fragrant with the promise
Of mornings first light

Come lie with me
As sunlight dances upon us
Under skies of blue
And faceless clouds

Come lie with me
Amidst the moonlit shadows
Gently caressing the night
A fantasy of stars
Dancing in the heavens

Come lie with me
And dream
Of yesterdays and wildflowers
Of sunlight and clouds
Of moonlight and stars
And tomorrows yet to come

Clouds
Squinting
Against sun
Paint a picture
Of light conquering
Where twilight turns the sky
A deep shade of blue, beaming
Nighttide rolls in where bright once was
Covering the day, shielding our eyes
Until the morning is aglow again

Diurnal light shines, a glow upon the Earth

Opening our eyes, to beauty and wonder

If we don’t remember, to treasure its worth

Our costly actions, will surely put asunder

Diana, of Myths of the Mirror has a new feature on her blog called, “Speculative Fiction Writing Prompt.”  Please visit the link above to find out more about the challenge, then join in the great fun!

I’m drawn to the darkness hanging in the sky, did my moon eclipse the sun? And what of this wanderer, tis I, but am I to be the chosen one? To watch, as light escapes from the clutches, of an ebony orb, up high; drawing me closer, as my soul, it touches, and still I can’t help wonder why.

I feel the vibrations flowing to Earth, could it be I am meant to depart? Will this beacon of light ever show me my worth, or will it swallow up my heart? The nearer I get to this magical sphere, whose presence has not moved an inch; I can only imagine why it holds me so dear, oh, these goosebumps that so make me flinch! I can’t turn away from the beauty above, I am hypnotized by its power; in the distance, the soft coo of a mourning dove, alas, I grow weary, in my final hour.
