Moonlit Diamonds

Moonlit diamonds light up the sky,
Giving me pause, as I think no thoughts.
Letting me rest,
My dendrites close their eyes and lie down,
Happily resting into the loveliness of the night.
 
Time for thinking is over.
No cares, no worries,
As the stars take over the earth,
The soothing of the planet begins.
A nightly ritual, worth its weight in diamonds.
 
I stare at the sky, at peace, knowing
All is being taken care of.
I am in charge of nothing.
Not even me.
I can be called back
At any time.
 
It is a peaceful feeling.
I take a deep breath,
Feeling loved and happy.
Diamond night,
Thank you.

Thank you Wren. I was looking at the stars, in amazement, as I do every night and I said "hey, this could be poetic!"

Not only is it comforting truly believing that despite appearances all things are in divine order, but there's extra comfort with the night skies sorta tuck the belief in. Very nice, Caren - indeed. All the best ... CayCay

Thank you CayCay. There is nothing like the night sky to instantly transform me into a spirit being who does not have any worries at all.

This whole poem is lovely... but the part that caught my attention is, "I stare at the sky, at peace, knowing/ All is being taken care of./ I am in charge of nothing./ Not even me." What a beautiful, peaceful thought!! Love this, my friend! ;)

The prenaturalness of space and sky always overwhelms me in complete love and bliss, Rhona.
