She is a natural beauty, with skin so fair

Her face reflects, in the water, where

The forest trees join her, in sweet repose

Though keeping an eye on her, lest she expose

The vulnerability, for just a moment or two

A vision of one, whose pain pulls her through

Never allowing the others, to find her like this

She keeps herself hidden, so near the abyss

Of water, before her, will she make the connection?

Is it really her, she sees, or merely nature’s reflection?

Barbed and brittle, branches reach

Clawing their way, from the ground

Forgotten, against a wall of stone

No flowers will bloom, no life around

He left them to die, for no reason at all

The only feeling for him, now, is scorn

This human one, who cares not for them

For him, they have blossomed in thorns

I set sail in the night, I’ve traveled for years

Beneath starlit skies, under amethyst tears

Gently falling, from clouds, into the sea

I watch them, slowly, gather round me

And circle about, this mist, in the dark

Creating a wondrous, beautiful spark

Casting their glow, how my boat shines with them

Like the crown of a queen, Heaven’s own diadem

One lonely lantern, set the stage, for a show

Dotting each flower, with its luminous glow

Making the darkness dance, in the light

Like dozens of fireflies, to brighten the night

Silently, beguiling, with its magic, it creates

Peaceful and calming, each moment, sedate

Never really alone, with its radiance, incandescent

This one little light, making moments, effervescent

Jupiter Glow ~ #poetry #AugustWriting

A different white light, in a star filled sky

Illuminated by night, as it drifts on by

A glow in the dark, shining down upon us

Leaving its mark, soon disappears, and thus

Hides the greatness, of Jupiter’s might

Til it shines in the lateness, again, ever bright
