starry




starry night brings delight
how I love the stars' light
shimmering , glittering, bright
twinkling like sapphires
scintillating and shining
like lanterns glowing
through the darkness igniting
dreams that keep showing

  1. This takes me back to my childhood. As a kid, I spent hours on my back, looking up at the stars at night. I love the rhyme and the alliteration, not to mention the beautiful description of those stars.

      1. Me, too, Yassy. I’;ve even begun to photograph the stars at night. Every time I look up, I find myself lost and no to star-gazing moments are alike. You are most welcome, Y!

      2. I am only just getting comfortable sharing poetry with other humans and don’t think I am ready to share my amateur photos. Perhaps in a few years 🙂

  2. This piece is very reflective on Starry starry night by Don Mclean based on the life of Van Gogh. Hauntingly beautiful piece. in truth, I love the night sky.

      1. I have always wanted to share a light indigo to a warm pink skies, while counting down stars with someone to cherish a moment and ending up with a really strong nescafe in that morning.

      2. fruitful nights and endless days of pure blissful unconditional love, with some real intellectual intercourse. mmm. . . that would be the ultimate of mine, milady.
