Jayne Eggins Poet Rhyme

In Awe of Night

A verdant night 
consumes my eyes,
beyond is a light
in blackened skies 

portals opened
the unseen seen,
shooting comets
develop a dream

A violin cries
of the deepest dark,
winging my heart
sound found its mark

now in the darkness 
my apron of sorrow,
is thrown on the ground 
draped into tomorrow

I cant my face
up to the moon,
filling my heart 
it vibrates to croon

trees of the shade
move without form,
grass is curling 
this isn’t the norm

A lonely sparrow
rests on a pole,
through his eyes
I see pure soul

flickering leaves
move on the ground,
the air caresses
as it swirls around 

my drying mouth
moves without word,
lips start to speak
but nothing is heard

this magical eve
wrapped into my gaze,
and through my tears
is a beautiful haze 

night watchers at peace
are reclining on stars,
they are resting their feet
on the front steps of Mars

I close my eyes
to this spectacular sight,
and relaxing my body 
I fade out to white
