Hoping Constellations

Hoping constellations This warm evening lingers along weeping fence lines of tear drop persuasion laced in glistening spider webs and I am missing you Staring up at a melancholy sky, counting hours on the face of the moon while minute hand comets slowly float by in orbiting arcs getting nowhere fast I see shadows reach beyond pecan grove silhouettes to far away borders of palm leaf pathways and white sand whispers, And I know this is where my heart longs to be as I walk towards the brightest star hoping constellations will guide me to you Good night Soupers

I can feel the longing..The heartbeat..ticking on the clock of the moon...The absence...And the dream..of walking on white sands on Palm trees paths with the one..Yes..That is what I visualize..Sad and beautiful at the same time..A favourite...

My goodness Chris. Beyond a 7 is this entry. You and your entry have truly met the emotive element with your words which are so eloquently expressed and placed. What can be said for such an entry simply put beautiful and yes poetic. The quiet reflective tone is very appealing. Well done on all counts.

Constellations will guide you. Teardrop persuasions in spider webs will light the way. You'll get there. Sleep well, Chris :)
