All That Glitters---

All that Glitters….

The stars have left their mark 
upon the sapphire blue of night.
Bits and pieces part, glimmer, glitter
a shattering of shards
Shaken from the hollowed kaleidoscope 
of moonlight and comet tails~
from the exhaustive flight of jet contrails.
Darned are the remnants of gloss tickling
against the omnipresent prism…
Twist, shake, and scatter, these tantalizing delights
	Upon the cheek of morn
Upon the noon tide and oceans wide
Bits and pieces part, glimmer, glitter
a shattering of shards
                        caste from 
the sapphire brim of heedless night.
