Make a wish upon a star
See the moon glow bright
Little one who watches
Out the window of the night

Whisk your dreams away
On the gentle evening breeze
Skyward clouds paint the skies
And mingle with the trees

Quietly she sits in thought
Dear sweet child of ebony light
Watches out the window
Enchanted by heavenly delight

I long to be the rocks, bathing in the crystal sea; far away from the land I know, tis where I want to be. Graced with azure painted skies, and just a hint of pink; I sit upon the water’s edge, and allow myself to think. Dream about the endless hours, I could spend about this place; where time here really does stand still, and I can take up space. Without the endless drudgery of the crazy day to day; when my mind can find the clarity, yet still be allowed to stray. Eternity lies far beyond, the horizon meets it there; one day I’ll find that sacred bliss, and just breathe, in its air.

Crystal cloves, unlike any other

A little spice will enhance your food

Best to use them quite sparingly

They put you in an amorous mood

Just a touch, a pinch or two

That’s all that’s really needed

To turn around a boring night

Expectations will be exceeded

#TBT ~ Until the Night is Born – #poetry

Darkness falls across my face
I’m weary from the day
Yet, this is the time that I embrace
Where my mind begins to stray

To fantasies and wonderlands
To visions quite obscure
To a place, my mind expands
With magical allure

Where dreams become realities
Where life’s a nursery rhyme
Where there is no normality
And I can pass the time

Until the light must shine and splay
Become a brand new morn
And I must tuck my dreams away
Until the night, again, is born

Storm ~ #poetry #etheree

Storm
Thunder
In my mind
Creates visions
Ones that do linger
Forcing me to escape
Into my own awareness
A place, profound, as is subtle
Yet, to truly understand your fate
One must make sense of their very own soul

 

This is my first attempt at an etheree poem.  Info on how to write one can be found HERE.  Many thanks to Helene Vaillant of Willow Poetry for creating in this form and to Colleen Chesebro for researching and adding this to her weekly poetry challenge.
