Astronomical Encompassing

Awaiting bristled whisper of ghost jounced leaves
Lain gazing galaxies far from terra's tarpaulin roof 
Exciting diamonds claw for cosy navy ink reprieve 
Hark my insignificance in succinct majesty's truth


Hushed by muchness, my warmth absorbs His plenty
Lapped by luminous lure, iced gateau half eaten moon 
Crumbled among sudden calm of Master's immensity
Awash in melodic acknowledgement, midnight's tune


Flung hungry flouresce of surged fireflies fighting 
Tenure very temporary, attempt to reach realisation 
Spread as cake laden table, sugary array imbibing 
Drunk on the gifts of gateau smile faced dedication 


Heavy sun slumbers elsewhere, heat not apparent 
Reality rests unreadable, dispelled from night haven
Swum in wonder of dark desire, denying my errant
Shot stars instrusive find my heart entirely enslaven
