Violet skies regard the drowsy moon, Stars glisten on the edges of dark night, Laughing eagerly wherever they’re strewn, Evoking stories that gentle hearts write. Stars glisten on the edges of dark night, Softly glowing, restoring rest to souls, Evoking stories that gentle hearts write, With soothing words, their poetry consoles. Softly glowing, restoring rest to souls, Breathless promises shake the naked dew, With soothing words, their poetry consoles. Saintly blessings stirred the spirit’s breakthrough. Breathless promises shake the naked dew, Forest’s melody invites leaves to dance, Saintly blessings stirred the spirit’s breakthrough, Whispering passion, like a heart’s romance. Forest’s melody invites leaves to dance, Bursting with light, the trees sway to the tune, Whispering passion, like a heart’s romance, Waltzing with the rabbits, deer and raccoon. Bursting with light, the trees sway to the tune, The presence of starlight swells the heart’s muse. Waltzing with the rabbits, deer and raccoon. Perfect peace, wonders and dreams will enthuse. The presence of starlight swells the heart’s muse. Laughing eagerly wherever they’re strewn, Perfect peace, wonders and dreams will enthuse. Violet skies regard the drowsy moon!

a truly captivating and eloquent poem, Gina. I liked so many lines and phrases I had trouble finding just one to pick out. This one stood out for me: "Forest’s melody invites leaves to dance, Bursting with light, the trees sway to the tune," such beautiful imagery and comparisons within your words. I'm glad you're cultivating your poetic voice. I look forward to reading your poems each day. Am faving this one for its beauty. Enjoy your evening, Sara
